Corbin is my special little Dude. I don't know what I would do without him. He is a 2 1/2 year old genius, says me, and he gets smarter everyday. I have been very frustrated with him lately and I know it's me not him. Somedays I feel like a very bad Mommy. Especially on the days when I raise my voice. Today he told me he hated me. I don't even know where he learned that from. I have never been so hurt. He knew it was wrong and came right over and said "Sorry Mum" when he saw me crying. I had my mom and sister take him for the day. I needed a break after that. What is it that I am doing that he would say he hates me? How horrible of a person am I? I need to work on some things internally so I can project a better Mommy image to him. He needs to know how much I love him. We cuddled in my bed tonight before his bedtime. I said to him "I love you". He rolls over, touches my face and says "I You Too Mum"(he doesn't say love) We are ok again and tomorrow is another day. It will be a great one.

Aww! Don't worry Mum. You are doing just fine!
If you do want a really great parenting resource, Shepherding a Child's Heart by Ted Tripp is a really great book. (as with almost all parenting books there are some things you take and some things you leave... with this one it's mostly take though!)
