Toddlers are exhausting! Please tell me that I am not the only one who feels this way!
I honestly feel like the last couple of months have been far more challenging than any time when Ian was an infant. Maybe this is because I know more about infants than toddlers…or maybe toddlers are just more of a challenge for me…I don’t know.
But I am tired…physically and emotionally. Between the crying tantrums, throwing things, and hitting, I am tired and the energy it takes to set gentle, firm, and consistent boundaries is exhausting. I know this is a phase. I keep telling myself this is a phase. I look at things from his perspective, and I completely understand his frustration and emotions he doesn't know how to control. But oh the exhaustion!
