"I'm sorry you're upset. When you calm down, I'll give you a hug and we can talk about what happened."

Great Read on Why 3 Year Olds Throw Tantrums HERE, and after reading this, I want you all to know that I love P1 and P2 more than I’ve ever loved anything in this world,  and they are both  very good kids.  I hope my blog never suggests otherwise when I talk about a temper tantrum or two that may be thrown every once in a while.
One interesting comment from the article:
"The average tantrum lasts about three minutes, according to Potegal's research. That's why, shortly after a tantrum, your kid is back to playing as if nothing happened, while you're still quaking from the event a half hour later."  Let me just say that I was quaking from THIS tantrum all day.  It just stayed with me.  Of course, blogging about it meant that I had to relive it too.
