JW getting short fused

16.5.12 - It's 3:13pm now and I am waiting for JS at Wesley.  I am recalling the outburst with JW yesterday.

My little gal is getting short fused and throw tantrum easily.  Well, when she got back from school, she muttered something to me while I was busy preparing her lunch.I couldnt hear what she was saying, so I asked her to repeat it. There and then, she was agitated and refused to repeat it. I insisted and reluctantly she told me that she said she will buy her own lunch tomorrow at school and that I dont need to pack anything for her. I told her that I already bought her dumplings for tomorrow.  Instead of being grateful, she threw tantrums again.  I was so upset with her. She's turning into a spoil brat:(

At dinner, I didnt take the chicken and vegetables for as I normally do. So TH asked her take it on her own but she refused.  She just ate her rice on the place.  TH lost his temper and shouted at her for being rebellious.  She began to shed tears silently and there went our nice dinner. It hurt to see her cry while swallowing each spoonful of rice.  I felt like hugging her at that very moment but I know she has to learn.  She cannot be pampered all the time and become a spoil brat.

After the storm yesterday, I see rainbow today.  My gal  woke up, wished me good morning.  She was courteous and polite.  In fact, this episode has reminded both of us that we have to be kind to each other and not take each other for granted.

I am also thinking why my gal misbehave, is it my fault?  I am a little short fused recently, could it be me that influenced her.  I somehow see myself in her at times.  Well, in that case, I must show her that I should be able to control my temper and so does she.  I will be more patient with her, listen carefully to what she has to say, be more attentive to her.  Gee, hope it is not too late to change. Good luck to me and my gal!

No matter what happens, I will forgive her:)
