Temper tantrum

Alana had a full blown pouty fit last night - the first time she ever did that. This wasn't her first ever show of temper, but it was the first time that she kept it up this long. And all because Larry asked her to go upstairs 10 minutes before Caleb had to go and she didn't like that at all. Now Larry didn't really help the situation, but once it escalated, neither he nor I could talk her off the ledge - she would not speak to anyone and she kept it up until bedtime. Then went to bed and pulled the covers over her head and still wouldn't calm down. When she got up the next morning, she told Larry that she was thinking of forgiving him. Yikes! If this is 5, what is 15 going to be like???
