Will you be affected by cranky mornings?
Am sure most of us love to wake up happily in the morning, but with kids, sometimes it is so difficult to do that, isn’t it?
Each morning, before going to school, I will let QQ watch her favourite DVD for about 10mins to warm her up while she takes her milk.
This morning, don’t know for what reason, she did not want her Barney nor her Pooh, but keep on shouting (dono whatever language she is talking about). Asked her to come and pick her own CD but she just refuse and keeping on screaming and crying. Really feels like throwing her into the drug rehabs for some disciplinary trainings!!
I was so mad that I scolded back even LOUDER at her, telling her I am so angry that she spoiled my nice morning. Seeing Mummy gets even madder, then only she got scared and cool down a bit, compromise to me.
So, in the end, Mummy always got to be more fierce to win?
Does that happen to you in the morning?




So far my elder girl did not cry in the morning.
Now i only worry my youngest girl, I am sure she’ll cry once she enter kindy! Sigh…
prob she will grow up by then?
that’s pretty normal for my morning too..sigh..
oh gosh…so pening one ah to become a happy mother ??
who wouldn’t be mad with the annoying cries & screams chinnee!!
every kid is different..guess qq is one lil crying baby ehh??
damn moody one…just like me
dont worry..it is normal..
We also face this problem…every morning almost
make me damn blur this fella…
kids are kids la.
my nephew marcus must make a fuss every morning before he goes to school, it’s now a part of the morning routine.
Same here… every morning hv to call her a few times b4 she gets up. If I’m edi angry, scold her then she’ll cry lor. Unless there’s comp lesson/water play/something interesting in sch or there’s ‘nice’ b/fast waiting for her.
sigh…talking bout nice breakfast, what do you serve in d morning yeah?
Yeah, I have to scream at myself in the mornings to wake up properly too. Sometimes, I wish I could just shut up!
haha…LB, why do u need to scream???
For me, I just hate it when I have to wake up early in the morning cause my 2 brats wake up so early, sometimes at 6am ler….but, so far so good, Jona always behave well in the morning, if I was the one who prepare him for school…maybe, he know mommy is fierce and dare not challenge me….he,he
your Jona very kuai one la….think thats how all mummies become so FIERCE!!
Maybe she got out the wrong side of bed. Sometimes Emily will be moody in the morn. I tried to make her laugh by tickling her or playing with her. After that, it is all smiles all the way.
Tickling? thanks for tips, Michelle….u are a smart mum!!
mine happened once in a while in the afternoon (after they took a nap), usually I will just distract them.
haha…..not easy when they become real CRANKY!!
It happens to me once in awhile too.. lolz..
hah….we poor mothers…
very common morning for me EVERY SCHOOL DAY!
i really hate it…every morning except sat, sunday n ph, i have to get angry.
u have got 3…can imagine the rush
hmm…i usually bring them to mil house even they still sleeping, but they are quite ok
as long as they don fuse, it would be a pleasant morning…
ya… I am with u…. “Mommy always got to be more fierce to win” ! Sigh…
which is not very appropriate hor….susah betul to train kids…
For me, the usual shout is “Hurry up, don’t dilly dally or you will be late!” Haha. But its usually my own fault for not getting up early myself. If I get up earlier, than usually, there is no rush and we can have a leisurely breakfast and chat too but I’m the sleepyhead.
Mummy tak cukup tidur also most of the time, sigh….
every kid is different,but if it really happens,try to distract them, as said by martini
when my kids were younger, yeah that happens a lot. But thank God now that they are a little older, they always wake up with a smile on their face. I usually greet them with a cheery good morning to brighten up their moods.
