not all fun and games

Not every moment with Evan is fun.  He does have a toddler temper tantrum once in awhile.  This morning we were about to get into the car and drive to school, when Evan decided he wanted to play with the snow shovel.  I thought, oh fine, we can do that for a few minutes on this 40 degree February morning.  Enjoy a few minutes outside before the heat wave is gone.  But, a few minutes of shoveling, turned into some raking, and then some bike riding.  After letting him play around for about 10 minutes, I said that we now have to go and went to grab him.  He pushed me and said "way" (which to him means "go away").   Not wanting to let him win, I continued with the plan and picked him up... and immediately I was holding a screaming flailing body.  I realize that this is not uncommon for toddlers, but doesn't mean I enjoy those moments.
