When I arrived in the kitchen Tim was stood covered in head to toe in honey and flower. When he saw me the kid's bottom lip began to tremble and tears flowed in to his eyes.
Probably thinks I'm going to shout at him or something.
I ran my hand over my face and sighed yep this is going to be hell.
"Ok Tim come here and we'll go run you a bath." I said holding my hand out to the sniffling kid.
"No!" Tim said as he toddled to the other side of the room
Oh for fucks sake.
"Tim come here you need a bath and if you think I'm letting you run around my apartment like that then you are way wrong"
"No! No! No! I don't want a bath!" Tim shouted
What is it with kids and baths?
"Tim either come here now or I'm coming to get you" I warned taking a step closer to the kid who was scowling at me.
Tim shook his head and continued to scowl.
"Ok you asked for it" I said as I crossed the room and hauled the struggling four year old over my shoulder.
As soon as we were in the bath room I locked the door so Tim couldn't escape and started to run the bath pouring in some bubble bath in the hope that it would calm Tim down enough to take his bath without a fight.
After making sure that the water was at the right temperature I turned to Tim and tried to undress him but only got my and slapped away.
"No I'm not having a bath"
I resisted the urge to hit my head against the wall.
"Tim you are getting a bath whether you like it or not and if you hit me again there is going to be trouble" I warned as I grabbed him around the waist undressed him and placed him in the bath.
"Your mean" Tim huffed as I started to wash his hair that had stuck together in clumps because of the honey.
"No your stubborn" I sighed
By the end of the bath there was more water on me than in the tub and I had to fight Tim to get out of the bath.
Seriously first they hate baths then they love them they should make up their minds.
xoxoxox
After an hour or so Tim started to yawn.
"Ok I think it's time for a nap" I said as I knelt down next to the kid to pick him up.
"No I don't want one" Tim shouted as he slapped my face
I narrowed my eyes at Tim and grabbed his arm and swatted his backside. Tim immediately burst in to tears and struggled as I led him to the bed room.
I felt guilty for swatting him but I can't just let him hit me every time I tried to take care of him.
I sat on the bed and rocked Tim like a baby until he stopped crying.
"Tim I'm sorry for swatting you but I can't let you get away with hitting me now take a nap and we can play when you wake up ok?"
Tim looked up at me thoughtfully before nodding and snuggling in to my chest as I continued to rock him.
When Tim eventually fell asleep I tucked him up in bed and placed a soft kiss on his head before heading towards my laptop and buying a parenting book. If I was going to survive the next few weeks I'm going to need it.
