Patrick the Juggernaut


Juggernaut-a massive inexorable force, campaign, movement, or object that crushes whatever is in its path.

This is the lovely distinction Patrick was bestowed by his great grandmother. "Patrick is a juggernaut," she was heard saying multiple times during her stay. This quite accurately describes my son. Whatever is in his path he tries to shove out of the way (including me!). His sister suffers the brunt of his (how do I say this politely) show of strength. She is plowed down multiple times a day if she happens to be standing in the way of something Patrick wants. He loves to steal whatever toy is currently in her grasp, and he doesn't hesitate to shove her out of my lap when he considers it HIS turn to be the center of the universe. So Patrick the Juggernaut it is!

*As a side note we, as parents, we do not in any way shape or form condone this kind of behavior.
