Seven, it’s the new Two

Dear Internet,

I’m not quite sure when seven became the new two.  I’d like you to please take it back.  I’ve had enough of it.  I’ve googled terrible sevens, but there just isn’t the information out there like the terrible twos.  All I’m getting is “7 terrible ideas for breakfast”.  Why would someone write terrible ideas for breakfast.  Wouldn’t “7 great ideas for breakfast” be a better article.

Seven is harder than two.  Seven is bigger.  Seven isn’t as easily distracted.  Seven is much louder and defiant.  Seven tantrums take much longer to blow over than two’s.  Seven has logic, no matter how flawed.  Seven is much more persistent.  Seven has a longer memory.  Seven should really know better.

So internet, please forgive me for sending my seven-year-old to bed at 6pm.

Also, since I have you here.  What kind of wine goes best with cheesy tuna noodle casserole.  It’s been one of those days…

Love,

Chanel
