This week, nine months into her two’s, Juniper has unleashed that terrible side. We have had more tantrums than days of the week (and it’s only Tuesday). We have tried lots of remedies, and well, the battle of wills continues.

But tonight after dinner, she was her goofy little self, pulling her pants down to show us her ‘butt butt’ (did I mention we are also in the midst of potty training?). And I realized, I’m so glad we are on a rollercoaster and not a free fall. I’ll take the lows with the highs and keep moving forward.​​​
