I'm trying to be as unbiased as possible, but I really think Lucas is a really good kid! Sure, there are times when he loses it and fakes cries till he gets his way, but what toddler doesn't pull that trick every once in a while?! So here's my reasoning...
Lu was at school today so I decided to it was time to finally spend some 1-on-1 time with Char. It happened to be LGCC's open gym today so I took Char there after dropping Lu off at school. As always, the place is a bit of a mad house with way too many kids there. (btw, I don't think this place is worth $2/kid. Go find yourself some play date friends instead!) Char was playing with something when this boy, who looked at least 3 years old, came up and tried to grab something from her. Luckily the mom was there and repeatedly told him to stop. He just kept going at her and trying to grab her toy without speaking. And that's when I thought of big bro Lu and how nice he is (most of the time) with his sissy poo.
There was also this other boy who tried to grab her toy and said "NO" to her when she tried to get it back. I dunno, maybe it's just me, but some parents definitely have to teach their children how to share better. Don't worry, in our household, we go through this sharing thing every single day.
Lucas will be building his Angry Bird blocks on the coffee table and in one swoop, Charlotte will knock everything down, which causes him to get mad. Sometimes he gets so mad that he pushes her down and she starts crying. I hope he understands that what he did is bad, but it's also bad that Char is doing that to him. Anyway... I have witnessed time and time again how Lucas has been very patient with Charlotte when she's messing with his stuff and "bothering" him. He is also mighty patient with his sister when she goes through random crying fits at night. Last night was so bad that we had Lucas sleep with us so he could actually sleep.
