Uh oh….. It is always difficult dealing with a mini version of ourselves. Bday bit and I could be like this – when he was younger. It is challenging enough as it is dealing with ourselves….

I just find this odd and it has been going on since she could talk. Now she is in high school and the “headbutting” continues. Then they both get upset and I’m stuck in the middle to clean up afterwords.
