God, I needed this.
I’m pretty sure I’ve felt my hair cells dying as my kiddo screamed in my face.
to be fair that isn’t a very good reason
My almost 4 year old just had a 20 minute meltdown about how his pizza wouldn’t stay on his fork.
Sigh
Cue a snuggle to help with his frustration, and me helping him figure out he could use his fingers to eat his pizza.
*spoiler. I did NOT want to snuggle him. We have had a very long morning and I was ready for all the kids to go to bed. But we got thru it and I didnt tear out my hair.
I’m not gonna deal with this phase well at all…😥
Experienced this exact scenario this morning 😫
My toddler is a screamer. It stopped for a blissful few months, and it’s back again 😑😑 RIP my ears.
Incidentally, You Are New by the same author was my 1yo’s favourite book.
There’s actually [3 more panels to this comic](https://imgur.com/a/cK6KtX3), but the first panel could exist in its own vacuum.
