Toddler advice

Hey all,

I have been experiencing a challenge with my two year old daughter in the last few months.

I work full time, I get to see my child some mornings for a bit when she wakes up, and I always try to be positive when I leave so she sees me happy and associates good things with me while I’m gone, and when I come home I always make it a point to smile and come hug on her and kiss her and tell her how much I missed her.

The issue is, whenever she sees me, there is an initial few minutes of anger she projects towards me.

Like, full on wale of irritation, followed by her maybe falling on her tail end and just all around seeming angry that she has seen me.

Is this normal? Is she just attaching the idea that when she sees me that means it’s time for her normal routine while I’m gone to end?

I’ll be honest, it’s soul crushing working my butt off and then coming home and that being her initial reaction.

Appreciate absolutely any advice on this, I am aching here as a dad.
