The Devil's visit

Mentally I was pulling through, really I was. Keith on the other hand, not so much.
My day was filled with crying and screaming, not sure what is going on with Emily... I am guessing besides the normal evil teeth coming in she is going through another adjustment period after being away from home for so long. It was bad people but after naptime it just went down hill. Keith and Dwayne came home from work so I was trying to make dinner... Miss Em was not having it though. She cried the whole time... screamed the whole time. After finally getting dinner accomplished the guys played video games and I took her into her room so we could play. Things were okay she was just very clingy. Then all HELL broke out... Lord Jesus why did you give my daughter the temper of the devil? I swear at one point her head actually turned around in circles... Don't ask what set if off because I have no idea... Keith was helping me get things ready for bathtime when this horrible grunting scream kept coming from my child. She was lunging her body, turning red, and making these horrible HORRIBLE sounds from her throat... The only thing I could think to do was press her against my body and rock her... restrain her if you will. You know things are bad when Keith who never freaks about Em runs in the room to Dwayne of all people (Last time I checked he was not a child Psychiatrist), and I hear him asking if this was normal... Ummm, Keith, no it's not... I am her mother and it's not! It was all I could to do to not break down myself. I am pretty sure the child was having a major temper tantrum... she isn't sick. Grreeeaaatttt.... Now I know what is really in-store for me people. It should be a fun 7 months while Keith is gone....
I am hoping that today is better.. of course I am. Another one of those days and I might become an alcoholic...okay not really but you know what I mean.
So... Until later people....
