While the celebration of your toddler’s second birthday is joyful, it is hard to ignore the feeling of dread as “No” begins to dominate his vocabulary. Though his outbursts are frustrating, keep in mind his actions are not acts of defiance directed toward you; he’s developing independence and learning how to express frustration.

Key Takeaways:

• About a year and a half ago, I wrote about my crazy-naughty three-year-old son. I pissed and moaned about the terrible threes and complained that the terrible twos were nothing.
• It turns out, you can have four kids and know nothing about anything. Because I’m here to tell you that the terrible twos are not only real, they are no joke.
• She was pissed and intensely focused and getting angrier by the second, but we all rolled our eyes at each other and started riding again.
