I am in love with your paper selection for the color blocking. I had a tantrum loving child but they immediately went away after I follow some simple rules from a book "the happiest toddler in the block". They tell you not to ignore them because nobody wants to be ignored. That toddlers are like like cavemen that they just throw tantrums because they are frustrated because nobody understands them. The author said to sit down at the kids level and throw a little tantrum too like "no, no, no" and then tell them in the most simple words you can use that you understand she is upset that you need just a little help to understand. They usually snap out of the tantrum when they see you throw one talking like them. Then give them an option, let's say you told her it's time for bath and she was playing. She starts crying you go with the "no no no" and then tell her "I know you want to keep playing how about we pick one toy and take it to the bath". You are telling her you understand and compromising and making communication work for both sides. Seriously it's an awesome book.
This is just gorgeous. Love the journaling - brings back memories of the "terrible two's" LOL. Your clustering and blocking is stunning. Congrats on a well-deserved Froggy Fave!
