The Little Hardhead

Today Mia is the epitome of the terrible two hardhead. I read her a story then Mike read her a story before bedtime. For twenty minutes she fussed and Mike got in and out of her room to give her quiet time. Each time she took off her pajamas and got butt naked because she knew that would get a reaction from us. The third time when this happened at 9, Mike said this was it as he dressed her again. She in no time did it again so he left the room. Since then she has been crying and throwing everything from the bed to the floor. She pushed the lamp down, put on a new pair of pants at ankle length and sat on the floor butt naked, bawling and asking for me and Mike to come in in both English and Chinese. Since she knew how to open a locked door now, Mike has been staying outside the door, holding the door knob for an hour so she could not open it. It's a struggle of will. Our two year old has such strong will after an hour she's still whining and asking me to come give her a hug. We are about to die!... but we can't give in!! This is horrible.
