Miss Tantrum-ess

Kid,

You are the best tantrum-er I know.
The most creative tantrum-ess....ever.
Woh.
Tonight was....a magical tantrum.
Full of many words - tantrum.
A song-like tantrum.

It went a little something like:

[in a yelling/crying/angry/urgent/tantrum voice]
"I want twinkle twinkle!!!!! I want Jesus [loves me]!!!!!" (you call it "Jesus" for short)

Then I respond with:
"Ok! Go ahead and sing twinkle twinkle."

The you respond [in a yelling/crying/angry/urgent/slightly singing/tantrum voice]  with:
"Twinnnnnkle twinnnnkle...NO! I want Jesus [loves me] !!! NO! I want binky! Twinnnnnkle twinnnkle....NO!!" -while laying on the floor in an utterly desperate manner.

Crying ensues.

I can't help but laugh, because I'm not really sure what the answer is.

All I know is that
IT
IS
TIME
FOR
BED

....you are already asleep.

I love your tantrums, kid.

Awwwwwww. And then there's this.
Can you wake up and play?

Wait.

On second thought, get some sleep.
Please.

We'll play tomorrow.

I love you...and your mighty yells.
