It’s been a fruitless day for writing and life in general. I have two preschoolers and am in the throes of potty-training the youngest. He was doing sooooo well, only an accident every few days and really taking it on stride. Until two weeks ago…he fell off the wagon. Didn’t want to go potty, didn’t want to tell me when he had to go. We had to put him back in pull-ups and he was quite happy using them as a diaper.

So, this morning, we went back to remedial training. Every 15 minutes on the potty. Well…he pee’d through 4 pairs of undies and then proceeded to pee on the floor when I left him naked hoping that would help….

It also doesn’t help that my 4-year old has only pooped on the potty twice in over a year. He waits until nap and then does his business in his pull-up. So…no pull-up for him today…and wet sheets and boyo after nap.

So, I’m very discouraged. .. my daughter was such a breeze to train that I don’t even remember training her! I think she caught on and wore pull-ups for a few weeks, graduated to big girl panties and never looked back. I remember a couple of wet beds…but nothing like this!

Yeah, I know, this doesn’t have a thing to do with writing…just life…

So, finding this quiz on the Divas of the Dark blog, I took it. I have to agree, fall is my favorite time of year. It’s when the kids go back to school!!!!
