I can't believe there weren't any major blow ups. We (BD & myself) did confront DH on Friday about some hitting issues BD12 is having with SD at daycare. DH was "blown away" that these issues were going on. It was only when BD12 started crying and said that she was tired of it that it finally sank in to him. So we (DH & myself) called a "Family Meeting". Here the girls were allowed to air all of their feelings about things without the fear of punishment or judgement. New rules were established that "playing" has gone too far when "STOP" is said.

I went to my first therapy session today. I have taken the advice of several on this website and sought therapy. I know that it won't be an overnight fix but I'm certainly glad that I decided to give it a try. I understand that I have issues and the therapist helped shed some light on why SD is acting the way she does. For example, she (SD) sees that I have a relationship with my BKs that she doesn't have with her mother. I know her mother and trust me, she doesn't have that type of relationship with her. Hhhmmm that was food for thought.
