Dear Kate,

My daughter is chasing me around the house hollering and screeching holding out a jacket.  She already has on one jacket.  Which I put on her after she chased me around the house hollering and screeching 5 minutes ago.  I finally got her to stop screaming by putting the second jacket's hood on her head the way I used to do as a kid when I was pretending I had long hair like a mermaid.

Some people might interpret R's behavior as diva-like, but given that I'm her mom, I have a sneaking suspicion that she just enjoys wearing a jacket 24-7 and is overwhelmed by the decision between 2 jackets.

It took me 20 years to realize I could make things easier by only owning 1 jacket,

Bora
