A little girl needs to feel she’s I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T too! 💪🏼 If I follow too closely she pushes me my legs away and says, “Noooooo!!!” Those terrible two’s not letting me protect her! At least she lets Uncle hover over her and tell her where to go. 🫠 Mommy just can’t be the one. 🤦🏻‍♀️ 

Sorry to all the strollers and people she almost bumped into! I promise we’re keeping an eye on her. I think some people thought she’s a happy little toddler just walking through the crowd alone disneyland 😅

The tantrums happen at this age as young toddlers explore the world and want to experience things on their own. When things don’t go their way or what they expect, and they don’t understand the dangers and parents or adults stop them from doing something, they don’t get it. If it’s safe, let them explore a bit of it on their own (but be warned they’re going to like it and want to do more). It’s all part of growing up!
