So where to begin. Last I blogged, I had mentioned my new ink, well its dry. On to the next. I have gotten rid of the mini van and purchased a new car. "Yawn" ok onto something much more interesting.
I feel compelled to talk about my daughter's unwillingness to use the potty. Compelled like I just ran out of vervain. Now going back seven years, I recall the difficulties in handling potty training with our first child. It took six months, possibly a bit more, and a parrot. Yes that's correct, a parrot. As for this child, I just don't know. During the last few summer months, she has taken a liking to running around naked on our back porch. Mind you, she has just turned three and we live in Upstate New York. In the woods.....Driving to town is now a phrase used in our household, so when I say the woods, I mean I could run around naked and no one would notice either.
Well this potty situation will have to be resolved shortly. Several days ago, my youngest asked if she could play on the back porch. As it is a large deck, about 25 feet by 45 feet, there is quite a bit of space for anyone to play. She disrobed and asked if she could play naked. Her words " nakey nakey please" My wife obliged and allowed her to do so. We both sat and watched her. Five minutes in she said" I want my diaper back." Well red flag, red flag! Of course we didn't see it. My wife and I turned to each other and spoke nonchalantly about the next canning project she wanted to do, and BAM!!!
Yes that's right, the little one finally pooped without her diaper.....right on the deck.
And yes I cleaned it up.
