She Isn't Always Bad (91/365)

So I was a little hard on Alice last night. She's not always that bad. Yes, she does tend to act a lot like Jekyll and Hyde lately, but when she's sweet she's sickeningly sweet. For example:

She ADORES her sister. She loves nothing more than to make Izzy giggle. I hope they continue to have such a good relationship because so far it's been awesome.

She's always willing to help me clean. Just today, she helped me by cleaning up the disaster of a toy room (otherwise known as our living room and dining room) all by herself. I didn't even have to keep reminding her to keep it up like I usually do. She helped me fold laundry, make dinner, and clean the kitchen too.

She is my social butterfly who you can't help but smile from ear to ear at when she's playing with her friends. She could care less what toy she's playing with, she just wants to be around other kids.

No matter how mad at her I am, she can always find something to say that makes me melt and smile. "Mommy, this is the bestest dinner EVER!" she said to me tonight. I try not to give into her, but sometimes she just knows how to get on my good side.

If I could bottle up these moments, they might just make the crazy psycho moments a little bit easier to deal with.
