i get angry to my child quickly

I want to admit my fault... I get angry with my child very quickly. It's so easy for me to yell at her. I always get annoyed when she has trouble eating or take a long time when we need to go somewhere. I find her very slow. I don't want her to become a spoiled child! Honestly, I'm confused about why I'm like this. Before I had my own child, I had nieces and nephews. I loved them so much, and I was even their favorite aunt. But for some reason, I can't feel the same way about my own child. I felt guilty for yelling at her yesterday when she hid something from me. It turned out she wanted to surprise me for my birthday. But I felt it was unnecessary. By the way, she is almost 4 years old now. Why am I like this...

My 4 yo eats slowly most of the time too. That's because he is busy talking to us or singing. Quite frustrating at times, but I try to stare at his face and find everything he does really cute. That calms me down a little. Sometimes he takes quite long to prepare for an outing too. It is quite normal for a kid that age. Just let them know the longer they take the shorter time they will be left to play or compete with them see who faster. My boy doesn't like to lose 😂. I have a 4 month old baby too so I try to chill as much as possible. And I'm that kinda mum that potty trained my boy before he joined the playgroup classes by 18 months. Haha. So try to relax before you start yelling, take a deep breath and look at your precious child's innocent face. Know that she loves you very much 😍
