Potty push
I’m posting this now because otherwise my friend Karen will be calling in about twenty minutes to complain that I haven’t posted since Thursday. I simply can’t take the peer pressure. Or the guilt. This post is a preemtive measure. It’s also just a quick note to let you know why I’m not around. Well, I hope to be around some, but I won’t be here as much as usual, if at all. (My mother has always told me I think like a spider web; I spiral around and around taking a thousand tangents before getting to the point. These stream of consciousness posts clearly reflect that – don’t they?)
We’re making a push toward the potty. Yup, it’s time. I’ve been putting this off forever because … well, I just don’t want to do it! Didn’t I just finish potty-training a child?? The calendar says Ellie’s been in panties for almost two years, but still. I’m a natural procrastinator. And everyone has totally freaked me out with the “boys are so much harder” speeches. FYI: warnings aren’t much encouragement unless you can provide helpful tips, people! *grin* Actually, I’m kind of excited about it. It will be SO NICE to have both kids out of diapers.
I may post in the evenings, but if I can’t, just know I’ll be back before too long.
