Tears And Tantrums: The Art Of Demonic Possession!

Posted on the 08 April 2013 by Susiemcbeth @susiemcbeth
Back when River and Indigo were still in the belly I remember seeing a little girl on TV throwing a massive tantrum, whilst her poor mother stood by and tried to calm her down.
At the time I remember giving my swollen twin filled belly a little rub (rubbing your pregnant belly is a compulsive need during pregnancy) and wondering why films exaggerate things so much, and also feeling quite smug, as I felt sure that my little darlings would never be like that.
Well, I can quite honestly say that I was very, very wrong and I am now wondering whether the film I watched was indeed a film or in fact, a reality based drama - being that the film was Father of the Bride Part 2 I am still clinging to fiction...but you never know...
Indigo, though nowhere near the much talked about 'terrible twos' decided that today she would throw the tantrum of all tantrums, because the little lady decided that clothes were in fact:
- Bad
- Unnecessary
- And a waste of her time.
In protest to me trying to get her top over her head, she ripped the top off, threw herself on the floor, made her self rigid before deciding to kick out her legs and scream like a siren for half an hour.
Is it at this point you call on a Catholic Priest and demand an exorcism or is it better manners to wait and see if this is a phase?
It was an interesting experience to say the least. I am really not sure what to think at all.
Though if the 'terrible twos' get worse than that, I may invest in a crash helmet, some full blown body armor and maybe some holy water...
I guess at least we were in the house and not out in public. Eek!
