Bup

The new boss of the house...Little Sky has turned the tables on Aiden. She has become a very aggressive, opinionated, physical little girl. Now Aiden wouldn't dream of snatching a toy out of her hand (and neither would I). She won't have that anymore. She stands her ground and then some.

The other day she decided it was time to turn off the TV so she walked up to it and pressed the power button and started to walk out of the room. Well, that didn't go over well with Aiden because he was in the middle of watching an episode of the "Wonder Pets" his favorite show on Noggin.

Just as she was walking out of the room she sees Aiden turn the tv back on. She runs back over and she turns the tv off again and stands guard. By this point, Aiden is really upset and he runs towards her (and the tv) "Sky, you do not turn the tv off!". As soon as she sees him running towards her, she gets in her fighting stance and blocks Aiden from the tv.

I worry about Sky hurting Aiden because she doesn't know her own strength and she doesn't yet know the damage she could do...especially with her fingernails. Aiden on the other hand is very careful not to hurt her so even if he does push her or take a swipe her he does it very gently and carefully.

Why "Bup"? That's her new nickname.

  1. Sky my darling,

    As much as I love strong and independent women it wouldn't be my choice to have you be the bouncer at the bar or kicking butt at the roller derby. You need to down shift and drop down a gear or two. That doesn't mean being a doormat, heck no. Maybe try to be the seahorse or dolphin, not the killer shark.

    It looks like it's time to braid your hair too. We'll try it and see if it works.

    I heard you are still on top of Santa's list...it's so exciting.

  2. Who gave you the nickname-BUP? I think it means
    "Best Ultralite Princess". That might explain why you have been given this nickname, but I am all for a girl defending her territory. However, we STRONG girls, have to learn when to push and when to pull. You go, Girl!!
