[quote=Anonymous]I am not a baby or little kid person, although I was surprised at how much I enjoyed baby/toddlerhood relative to what I expected. That said, I COULD NOT WAIT for 4, because I'd heard that was when everything got easier. Well, sort of. 3.5 was when my DC could at least occasionally be reasoned with, and started saying things like, "nah, never mind, that's okay, I guess I don't really need X." Occasionally, LOL. But I did notice a little light at the end of the tunnel there. Maybe 4.75 is when nearly all real tantrums stopped (they had already become less frequent), attention span lengthened considerably, etc. Starting around 5.5 or so (Kindergarten) has been cake in comparison to all previous years. She's ~6.25 and while there are always challenges, it's SO easy, in comparison, for me. And I don't just mean less "work," but more enjoyable, more comfortable.[/quote]
