Questions

How come when I color with Kayla she always wants to color on the page I'M coloring on? Or the same spot I'm coloring? Even if we have 2 different coloring books out she inevitably takes over the page I'm coloring on.

How come I have to use the particular color she wants me to use? What if I didn't want to use orange? But no, I have to have orange (here mommy!) because that's what she is using.

How come she won't let me snuggle, hold and cuddle her when I want to, but when she wants to be held it's always when I'm in the middle of something?

How can someone so little take up more space in the bed then the 2 adults? On the mornings we bring Kayla back to bed with us Joe and I end up clinging to our sides of the bed while Kayla gets the whole middle.

How come we tell her it's time for dinner and she seems excited about it "oh ok!" and runs over to get in her chair; then when I place her plate in front of her she barely takes one look at it before pushing it away?

How come she won't eat anything for dinner without much begging, bribing, and pleading from her parents to just take "one bite" and then "ok one more bite" but if it were a breakfast food like cereal, oatmeal, pancakes, waffles, eggs, sausage, hashbrowns she would eat it right up with out any protest?

How can motherhood be so frustrating, yet so rewarding at the same time?

How can she pretend to be so innocent when she's not? Like the times that she knows I'm upset with her for doing something she shouldn't have, when I try to talk to her about it she turns her face away from me (so as not to see "the look" on my face I guess) then she turns back and says "hi mommy" like everything is ok. When she says it like that you can't help but smile at her; the little stinker.

How come they have to grow up so fast?

And no I don't really expect answers to any of my questions!
