the true significance of Terrible Twos or some rather say its Terrific Twos...
Testing boundary in public is a very challenging affair not so much to myself but a great deal to the daddy. The first sign showed up earlier this evening.
As it is a known fact that Zethan is a super duper big fan of Mickey Mouse and it is amazing how he can spot one hidden in a corner behind a row of magazines, the smallest figurine in the showcase or even just a quick glance while passing by. So just now we were in the supermarket when he spotted the Kleenex tissue boxes printed with Mickey Mouse. He walked over and exclaimed very loudly Eeeee which is a norm by the way. He insisted on carrying a whole pack of 5 boxes and will not take no as an answer. We walked away while he stood there firmly crying out loud, refuse to budge. Naturally for me, ignorance is the best strategy and walked away oblivious to any stares. Within seconds, the daddy walked back to him and picked him up.
Part II ~ he held my hand and walked into the game arcade. We explore 2 rounds in the tiny confined rowdy space and I told him it's time to go. Meltdown once again, insisted on staying in the arcade. I opened the glass door walking out while he had no choice but to follow suit not before putting up a fight, crying and yelling while walking!
brave myself for more to come!
