As I've suffered through this last year of Riley's "terrible twos" (which, by the way, started WAY before she was two), plenty of people have told me to just be patient because everything would change when she turned three. "Three," they would say, "is the most wonderful age.....they are relatively self sufficient, fun, funny and loveable..."(I'm sure they added other adjectives that I just can't remember because I wasn't REALLY listening at the time)
Now I have a three year and one week old. Over the last week, there have been repeated requests to cuddle, I have been serenaded by Barney's "I love you, you love me...", and out of the blue, I hear "Mom- I LOVE YOU" at least 25-30 times a day from all over the house. I must say that NOW I can attest to the sweetness of my darling three year old!! (It's about time!)
