Bo can be rough and tough when he wants to be.  other times he’ll be so thoughtful and generous.    Some times I wonder how he can be the same child.   But….as much as he can push on others and swat at them when they have something he wants, he never really hurts anyone.   Today he’s more than met his match.  I’m watching my friend’s three kids, the youngest is a 3 yr old boy.   He and Bo just dont get along.  All morning long he was telling Bo that he was an idiot, is stupid and mean.   I finally made everyone sit at the kitchen table and do work, they painted, colored, made necklaces w/ beaDSCF0020ds…all while I made lunch.  After lunch I let them have  free play in the living room while I cleaned up luDSCF0021nch.  In those few minutes the little boy scratched Bo, I dont know why but they say Bo hit him too.  So that’s fair game right?  mostly…except it drew blood.  then again….not even a minute later he attacked Bo.   needless to say they are both napping now because I was ready to call and have her come get her kids.  I am so exhausted and stressed out…. and Bo’s in pain from his injuries.

    Ouch, that looks like it hurts. Did you talk to the other little boy’s mom? If one of my kids did something like that I would want to know about it.

    I’m sorry…they’re at that difficult stage. Lisa started going through this at the same age…
