In the middle

You do need to constantly remind yourself that your children are all so very different.
Today I having been able to see for myself how easy it is to contribute to the theory of middle child syndrome.

When I look at this sweet child of mine I forget sometimes that she is still 3. It doesn't help that most poeple we come across naturally think that she is older simply because she is tall and because she is always up with or at least trying to be up with all the bigger kids.
I find myself saying to her ' you need to change your attitude' or 'you need to stop using that tone of voice'. These things are not an achievable but maybe I need to explain to her first what an attitude is or tone of voice.

I think this is because she is a middle child. I keep thinking that she is up with her sister Princess and in so many cases she is. But I know that I really need to try harder to be mindful that she is still my little sweetness.

With all her little quirks just of her own.
