Adult pop songs? Cold war?

Renee just simply loves music. She not only sings children songs, cite children rhythms, she also sings/hums adult songs hahaha. We were watching 1 MTV last evening, I think it's on the song 'She will be loved'? by Moroon 5. And she went with it "And she will... be loved. And she will... be lovvved" and then turned to grin at me lolz.

Oh yes, a cold war, between me and Renee. She made me soo angry lately and each time I scolded her, she'll cry, got angry and will soon forget about it. In the shower earlier, I chided her for something and she started to cry and apologise : "mommy, sorry mommy, I make sure I won't do it again" but this time, I was so tired and decided to ignore her.(haiz, to think that I even detoured to Punggol plaza earlier, to get her a 'Dora' bowl[cos 'Dora' stuffs are not always 'complete' at all stores] before I go to pick her from school)

As usual, she came to me right after I've had my shower but I still gave her the cold shoulder and she went to her daddy to 'complain'. He told her that it's because she was disobedient, thus I'm not talking to her and she told him "But I want to say sorry to mommy". I almost soften down but I controlled myself, else she'll take it lightly again.
Children are just sooo good in testing waters.
Later as I was watching tv, she came to sit beside me, trying to catch my attention but failed, so she lied down on the sofa. Then when daddy came out from the shower, she happily called out to him : "papa, come come, together, family" and he told her "but mommy is still angry". She started to apologise to me again, and even pulled me by the neck to her. I still didn't give in though I don't give her the hard look anymore.
I began to tell daddy what she had done recently and he got angry. He also chided her but she said to him : "I say sorry to mommy, I won't do it again". At this, daddy told her she must mean it otherwise apologies are nothing.
At one point, she pulled a stunt, I laughed out and I got a scolding from daddy myself too. So, I have to resume my angry state, for her good....

Later, when it was bed time, she requested her daddy to read her favourite book to her and he took the opportunity to ask "are you a good girl then?" and she quickly said "I said sorry to mommy".
After he's read the book, I think a little 'conversation' took place cos she later cried asking for me.

Not easy to be parents...
