Tantrums

Mack has been throwing major tantrums lately when he doesn't get what he wants - a jar of pickles in a store for example. He screams and thrashes about sometimes throwing himself to the ground and banging his head. It's quite unnerving and annoying but I get that he's frustrated. He can only say boat and ball and has no autonomy. Sunday Mack and Emma went for the same ball and Mack wound up with a shiner. Poor Mack he wants to be like the big kids. I keep referring to him as a spaz and a handful which he sometimes is despite being quite charming and sweet. I look forward to calmer phases.
