Sometimes, It’s the Little Joys In Life

Filed under: Kid Stuff — Kira @ 9:29 pm

It’s been 11 days since I last posted. I even failed to post on Mother’s Day, which I suppose in the Mommy Blog world, is some kind of faux pas.
But I don’t have much to rant, whine and complain about… I’ve been in too good a mood. I had the best Mother’s day gift of all — my son is finally potty trained. (Really, this time).
There have been times in my life when I thought some things would never end. High School. College. Pregnancy. Sleepless nights with the baby. Breastfeeding. And, especially potty training.
No more holding it for six days.
No more pull-up diapers. Or Once Upon A Potty, and Your New Potty, and every other stupid book or video that didn’t help at all.
Cancel that appointment with the Pediatric GI.
I’m not asking why or how (although toy bribery sure helped, no doubt), who cares, it’s done. Just don’t ask me for any potty training advice, I’m the last person you’d want to ask because I sucked at it so bad. I’m just so happy to be done with it I could skip down the street giving flowers to strangers.
I will never, ever, ever miss changing diapers. And with some luck if I ever have grandkids, I can talk them out of letting grandma change the diapers and I will be off duty for life. Woo Hoo.
So, that leaves me with little to blog about, at least that I feel comfortable putting up here in a public forum. I still have that tube in my eye which has mostly fixed things and will be with me for the next 6 months. I’m busy with working with my husband doing housepainting. I’ve been doing a lot of volunteer work. I’ve put on a couple of pounds.
Yawn.
