It’s Potty Time!

The best thing to hear at 8:30pm: “Potty, Mommy! Potty!”

Bug was frantically climbing out of bed as I sat up asking, “You need to go potty?”

There was this note of desperation in her voice as she replied: “Yeah!”

So off we went, to the big girl potty, hurrying up on running feet. We lifted the lid, put the pink toddler potty set in place, pulled down britches, and sat.  A moment later and tinkle tinkle tinkle.

She’s such a big girl now! She’s recognizing when she needs to go, alerting us to the need, then holding it until we can get to the potty. She wipes and flushes too.  If only I could break her of the habit of trying to stick her face in the bowl to look at the tinkle as it goes down the drain…..
