At just shy of 23-months, my daughter has decided that the Terrible Twos can't wait, and so pretty much every moment of the day, good or bad, is cause for an enormous crying jag.
"Want some milk?"
Waaaa!
"Want to take a nap?"
Waaaa!
"Want to ride a carousel with ponies dipped in sweet honey and rainbows?"
Waaaa!
On the way home from a long car trip, I ignored the latest round of crying and said to my wife, "I can totally see why my dad would say something like, 'I'll give you something to cry about.' It all makes sense now. There's just nothing wrong and yet ... tears. All. the. time."
It's enough to make me fall off the wagon and enjoy one of these: Babble's own "Something to Cry About."
All you need is ....
A. Large glass
B. Lots of rum.
C. Lots of Coke.
D. Lots of Ice.
And finally, E. a cheap babysitter. Because after a few of these, you won't hear the crying anymore.
