"you're sad i put you down, mama gets very sad when her face is hit!"
I'm definatly using this!! I have a problem myself with getting my feelings out in words, and how to explain or handle dd sometimes. This is just gold, I love it. Thanks!!
I have a discussion with DH, just so we are both on the same page on how to handle her with the face hitting.

it's like potty training, they begin by telling you AFTER they go that they need to.
OMG, OT but I just have to share. It's feezing in the morning and I was in my underwear and dd looked up to me and said: "pee-pee", turned around and ran for the loo. So I (in my undies) goes after, pulls off her pants and diper and place her on the loo. She sits there, smiles at me, do a little fart and ... that's it!!! I inspect the diper and sure as poo, there is a nice warm wee in it Me freezing my butt off, struggeling for the next 5 minutes to get a new diper on a wormy little todler. (She has started tt on her own in day-care .. I know it's early, but she tells them on her own and has done like 5 wee's on the potty in the past couple of weeks ... I'm not pushing her, but if she does it on her own, that is fine by me)
