DSCN0565.MOV

Above is a video of Regan singing some of her favorite songs. I recorded it on my digital camera, so the lighting is not the best. Also, she just got out of her bath....but you have to catch her when you can. She does not like to be videoed...she likes to see herself on t.v., but she does not like to have the camera on her. She hasn't quite figured out that you can't have one without the other.

Yesterday was not a good day at school for Regan. She got a tearful report, and she didn't nap very well or eat very much. There was a little girl there that was new and was having a hard time, so I worried that this would affect Regan's day. And for some reason they didn't warm up her food. But they said that they are having problems with her telling them no for everything. They said she is very smart, but defiant. This, of course, made me feel like a failure as a mother. But I have been reassured that she is two, and that this is a phase that I will have to help her grow out of. I told her that she has to listen to her teacher's, and she can't tell them no. She said "I know." Her teacher's said that is what she tells them when they tell her that. I feel a little helpless, so any advice would be appreciated. I do feel that she is basically a good, sweet kid....but she does come from to hard headed parents..... So, what to do?

I loved the video! She sure is learning a lot. Are you sure she is saying "I know" when you are telling her that she can't tell her teachers no? Her "I don't know" sounds a lot like "I know."

She is definitely saying I know.
