It's Monday morning Matthew had slept until 8:30 which never happens...sometimes he wakes up and just starts unloading all of his complaints, the toys he wants but doesn't have, what someone has done to upset/offend him, you know general whining and complaining. Eventually I tried to change the conversation and it went something like this...
Me: Your birthday is coming really soon, what kinda of party do you want?
Matthew: Elmo I guess, but I just want to go to Target and buy something now, it's going to take to long for my birthday to get here..blah, blah, blah...
Me: Matthew Today is a good day, and you need to stop whining and lets talk about something happy.
Matthew: Talking about something happy is boring.
