Headcase

Today while playing with Lillie, Parker had a "little disobeying incident". I told him he had to get out of the pool for 4 minutes and take a break and think about what he did. Around the 2 minute mark I looked over at him and noticed he was staring straight ahead with a very blank look on his face. I waited until his 4 minutes were up and plopped him on my lap and then asked him what he was thinking about during his time out. He looked at me and very seriously said, "Oh, I was having a tantrum in my brain. That's ok right?"

haha... a mental tantrum. I have them ALL the time...I just never thought of them that way!

What a smart and intuitive little boy you have! Don't we all have tantrums inside our head?

Thanks, Parker, for giving me a name for those times I can't explain myself!
