Frustrating Bliss

Curtis and I are currently potty-training Landon. It's actually been very good...We're over the hard part of 5 accidents a day. He's actually been almost 5 whole days without any accidents (a mother's dream)!!! He is also in a "stage" right now that I am so frustrated with. He's mean to EVERYONE... especially Addison, he yells and hits me, he mistreats everything (toys, books, clothes). He does this all as if it's no big deal if he gets into trouble or not... I've found myself twice in one week basically hiding in my room crying because I don't know how to make him behave and I am tired of trying. The worst day I've had with Landon is the day he kicked his sister in the face. He was walking towards her saying, "Hi baby. I go watch Diego"....(Kick).... Yes, he was in his room for a long time, even longer when he refused to tell Addison he was sorry, then even longer for wetting his pants! Just when I think I'm in a never-ending-battle, there comes days like this one when this sweet little boy brings me the camera and tells me I look pretty and he wants to take a picture with me. Melts my heart! Someday I will look back at the bad days I've had and I will laugh, but no matter how bad or mean Landon is right now I know he is a good boy and I love him so much more everyday!
