It's True...3 is worse than 2

I thought that having a 2 year old throw a temper tantrum was mind boggling and frustrating but about 3 weeks before Hudson's birthday I experienced something new....getting told off by my son!  Everyone told me that 3 was worse than 2 but geez.  If I tell Hudson to do something he does not want to do he just yells "Mom!!!!!!!" as loud as he can while looking me square in the eye and then proceeds to tell me why he does not want to do it.  At first I was taken back but now I just am tired of it and we have about 360 days till he turns 4.  I don't know if I can make that long without throwing my own tantrum but time will tell.  I am tired of it already.
