Guess Which One of them is the Crazy One
The photo makes it pretty obvious which of the two girls has been voted Most Likely to Lick a Wall. It's the same girl who has also been voted Most Likely to Need Bail Money.
Go figure.
THAT girl, the crazy one, is the same girl who is wildly inconsistent in her craziness. Sometimes she rages through her day and makes it really obvious that she's angry that she isn't getting her way. Other days, she's the empathetic little person patting a friend's back and asking, "You okay?" Never mind that she's why the other kid is crying. At least she tries to fix the situation.
She also tries to create confusion at every turn.
There is a disconnect in this house that has kept Mila's beloved pacifiers in her life. I say she can't have them and yet somehow she gets them and I get tired of fighting about these things. Alas. Finally, this week I decided to act like a grown-up and I made all of those things disappear. ::POOF!::
I'm not telling where they're hiding. It's a secret.
They're hiding and not in the trash because MILA. Mila is really very likely to decide the pacifiers are worth ruining everyone's life over. She is very capable of throwing a fit for three straight days without a break.
So.
I figured that when Mila first figured out that her pacifiers were gone, she was going to read me the riot act. The first question came as I was buckling her into the car one morning. "Where's paci?" she asked.
"Paci had to go bye-bye," I replied while searching frantically for a helmet and maybe a fire-proof suit because I knew I was about to be destroyed.
"Bye, paci!" Mila said.
AND THAT WAS IT.
SHE HASN'T HAD IT SINCE.
AND SHE HASN'T CARED.
And that right there is why Mila has been voted Most Likely To Give Me All of the Gray Hair.

Nicely played. I suspect that if you said, "You can't have the paci any more," you would have gotten the result you were anticipating.
That girl. I mean. The cute! And the other with all the beauty, sigh
