I've discovered that 4-year-olds are annoying.
I think this was something I knew but chose to block from my mind. My sister has seven kids, six of whom have passed the 4-year-old mark. And I'm pretty sure they were all annoying in their own ways during that 4-year-old year.
But my sweet little 4-year-old recently learned more than just blowing spit bubbles and letting the dog lick them off her lips, making long spit strings. More than just saying, "Mommy, I got a stinky butt" over and over. More than 800 requests a day to "Watch me, Mommy!"
She learned to talk back.
