lula can be very social... and then very shy. you just never know which one she'll be from one minute to the next. lately she's on a "cling-on" kick. when i drop her off somewhere or when a sitter comes over, she grabs my leg and hangs on for dear life or becomes very moody and sassy.
i know it's just a phase. i've seen her little friends go through the same thing, but man is it frustrating! is it an attention getter or an attempt to control the situation? cause you know as soon as you pry them loose and run out the door they're just fine and have a blast.
i feel like i react a little too much when this happens. i try to reason with her or ask her what's going on, and she probably loves the extra attention. so maybe next time i'll just "kiss and fly". then at some point hopefully she'll realize that acting that way doesn't equal extra attention and she'll move on. hopefully!
any tricks out there to share with the rest of us?
