This morning, meia didn't have her usual morning nap as I brought her out to J8 for some grocery shopping. It was around 11am when we reached home. My helper n Meia were in the living room watching Barney and I was busy preparing Meia n hb's lunch. All was fine n Meia behaved herself rather well during that short period of time.
When hb finally came down for lunch, Meia was pretty excited (cos she loves eating our food, that is from our bowl, hahaha) and ran to her daddy asking for FOOD. All was well, Barney was playing in the background n she hugged n kissed her daddy when the I love u I love me song played.... till Meia suddenly decided she wanted to take daddy's chopsticks to feed herself. No, she doesn't know how to use the chopsticks yet, she could only use them to poke his tau kua, but she wasn't accurate n got gravy all over her face n eyelids, hb tried to clean her, she screamed... okie, hb gave her another chance to have a poke at the food... she dirtied herself evenmore..... so hb decided enough was enough, he tried to take back the chopsticks from Meia, but she put up a fierce fight n REFUSED to let go, thus......... a little fight began... hb yanked the chopsticks from her n she started to bawl big time, lying on the floor (something she hadn't done in a long while cos whenever she does that I will discipline her), she lied there crying n wailing n screaming her lungs out.... we didn't like her to scream, warned her to stop but she continued to scream, so hubby slapped her thighs.... manz my heart ached like crazy upon seeing it, but what to do, when u gotta discipline u gotta do it. Yes, I often blog about my heartaching when I beat my little gal, but I guess my heart aches even more when I see my hb do the act (cos he seldom beats her, infact i think this is the first time).... who would have known this would happen.... one min they were hugging n kissing, n the next..... manz I think Michael's heart ached even more....
Finally her carried a crying Meia n passed her to me... she was tired out by all the crying n promptly fell asleep when I carried her up to the room....
My heart is crying now.... is this halfway to the Terrible Twos? I think it has already started.....
