Frantic.... that is the pace M is at today. Frantic... I even made up a song about it this morning.

"No need to get frantic, to get frantic, to get frantic. No need to get frantic, its all okay."

I just can't seem to calm her down. I can't get her to breathe, I can't get her to be squashed.... brushed, compressions. I just see her on a one track way to meltdown land. She's had a frantic week, but today is bad. I just got her in a competition to see who could blow the longest, but its not helping, it turned into something to get frustrated over....

She's been obsessive about lollies and juice for the past week. Enough that we've had 3 massive meltdowns over the fact that I don't have lollies in my bag. Or that we don't have juice in our house. Things that we don't have at that time, or don't usually have. I never have lollies in my bag, I mean if I had lollies, I'd eat them all!!! I went to pick her up from school and she started screaming as soon as she saw me that she wanted a lolly. Then she wanted an ice block or juice. None of which were available at that time. So there was nothing I could do. She ran into the street screaming and laid on the ground. Then she came in with me (I was there to do teaching) and I wound up having to leave 20 minutes later with her kicking and screaming under my arm. My back went out.
