1. Terrorize: v. To cause (someone) to be extremely afraid. If it's not what my toddler might say, it's what he might do that keeps me VERY afraid!
2. Tester: n. One that tests or is Used for Testing. Nothing gets by him without his own investigation. He needs to touch, question, play with... everything must be tested!
3. Traitor n. 1. : one who betrays another's trust or is false to an obligation or duty 2 : one who commits treason. A Toddler will throw anyone under the bus. If they are not calling out someone, they are telling their business.
4. Talkative: a. Tending to talk a lot or to enjoy having conversations with people. HE NEVER STOPS TALKING!
5. Tameless: a. not tamed or not capable of being tamed. The child cannot be tamed. Nope. It can't be done.
6. Tantrum: n. an uncontrolled expression of childish anger : an angry outburst by a child or by someone who is behaving like a child. I'd say Merriam and Webster pretty much just summed it up.
7. Tardy: a. Slow in moving, acting, or happening. For some reason when I tell my toddler it's time to go, he hears, sit down and start playing with toys.
8. Truthful: a. containing or expressing the truth A toddler will tell you anything you want to know. They will even tell on themselves! They will also tell on you, so beware.
9. Thieves: n. One that steals especially stealthily or secretly. You have seen the toddler Rules of Possession right?
10. Theatrical: a. Behaving or done in a way that is meant to attract attention and that is often not genuine or sincere. OhMiLawd! The theatrics! A toddler can give an Oscar winning performance at the drop of a hat. It's pretty amazing really. A toddler can go from full tear meltdown to excited and laughing back to meltdown. On queue they can do just about anything... but go to sleep of course.

I often say my children will make me bipolar. I have two toddlers and a baby and one minute they are screaming and just refuse to listen and you just want to pull your hair out but in the next second they do something so adorable like smile or giggle or say something so perfectly outrageous that you can't help but smile. From angry to completely happy in the speed of light. I will have grey hair by 30 but by golly they are worth it. lol
Omg. Agreed! and I only have the one. Those little terrors know how to play you until you're breaking point, then reel you back in with cuteness. I'll need a padded room in two ears at this rate. Maybe we will be neighbors!
