I just can't be good

Krista is a drama queen, and everyone who knows her is completely aware of this.  At times it is just funny, and at other times infuriating.  I have had to count to ten on numerous occasions when the hysterics get out of control.  My dad has a theory,  well two actually.  First, her behavior is payback for the misery that I caused my mom as a child.  I am not a fan of that one, but whatever.  The second is that she is suffering from middle child syndrome.  This theory makes more sense to me, but we are still left with how to fix the problem.  Last night she had a temper tantrum because it was too late to have fun dip.  Fun dip.  A pack of fun dip caused about 25 minutes of turmoil in my house.  Yes, it would have been easier to just give it to her, but then she gets the impression that the way to get what she wants is to throw herself on the floor and kick and scream.  The sad part is when she finally calms down she says, "I just am no good at being good.  I must be a terrible person."  She is either a master manipulator, or she really feels bad about the behavior.  Either way, this mommy felt terrible for her last night.  She really is a sweetheart, and I know this phase will pass. Until it does, i will continue to look for the humor in all the little quirky things she does.
