They do go through their independent phases!!! Often! hahaha If she gets too bossy, you might try out a little Nothing In Life Is Free for her and get her back on track with you as her total provider of needs but only after she's acknowledged and performed a simple, fun little act of obedience. Immediately you reward her with what she wants with a smile and affectionate little praise to go with. It is the quickest way I know to get the little toddler in them to sober up and remember they do have to keep on behaving and doing what mommy says even when they begin feeling their oats and finding "a better way" than what mommy says. Little stinkers sure are strong-willed but that's what we love about them!!! A few little things here and there though can bring them back in line soon though if some fun is injected into lessons.
