I won this battle...barely

So my daughter is 5, and this one is giving us a run for our money. She has been a stubborn little spitfire since day one. Each year is tougher than the last. For some reason, I was expecting 5 to be a breeze - well, it's not.

This morning, she wouldn't stay at the table to eat her cereal. We told her MULTIPLE times to eat her cereal before it got soggy. Did that happen? Of course not. Her cereal got mushy, and she no longer wanted it. She wanted something else.

My husband and I decided that this was a battle that we must win. And it was quite the battle. Weeping, stomping, wailing, etc...15 minutes later, she had eaten her soggy cereal. We won.

Now, on to the next battle!
