DIY: A Potty Training Revolution



Hi,

My name is Adelia. My mom refuses to potty train me (she's scarred for life from 21 combined months of potty training Lincoln and Ivan), so I've decided to take matters into my own hands. I decided to start this weekend while we were at Gramma Tam's house, because why not? We were on vacation after all. Basically it works like this, when I need to go, I just strip down, climb up on the potty, and take care of business. I may or may not let anyone know about it afterwards. I'm cool like that.

Mommy has decided that it's easier just to put me in underwear because, at least I can put those back on by myself. Unlike my diaper, which I could never get back on, so I decided to bag it and run around the house naked. I miss that free feeling, but my underwear has Tinker Bell on it, so that's almost as good.

I heard my mom tell my dad that she's washing her hands of this whole business. I'm ok with it though, I have always been a do-it-yourselfer, even before I was two. I must get those independent and stubborn genes from my parents.

Anyways, all is well at our house. I have only had two accidents in three days. And I'm just doin' my thang.

That's great! Man, that sounds so easy! I guess consider this your treat for putting up with the boys being potty trained. :)

I am nervous whenever it comes time to potty train Liam. At times, he seems ready but I don't want to push it or clean up a bunch of accidents if he isn't ready, although I know whenever he is ready, there will still be some accidents.
