My Mom Can Die Happy (NOT that I am ready for her too!!!)

I was in a Women’s Council meeting last week and we were discussing an upcoming church event.  At this event we are going to have 9 workshops offered throughout the night that women will register for ahead of time.  These workshops will be things like “How to Make a Homemade Pie” or “How to Make Hairbows” or “What Everyone Should Have in their Car as a Survival Kit” and “Power Tools for Ladies”.  (They will all have much more clever names than this, of course.) 

The point of this is that someone said, “How about a workshop on writing a good thank you note?” and without skipping a beat, our leader Jean said to me, “YOU could teach that one!”

So, there you go, mom.  Your daughter was recognized as one who not only writes thank you notes, but writes them well.  All those years of training were not for naught! Go ahead – beam! You know you want to.

Pedicure Tragedy

Saturday night at approximately 6:30PM, during the bath routine with one certain Bubba, I hit my toe. Blood everywhere. Half my toenail is gone.

Pedicure Schmedicure.

In case you can’t tell – I am pouting.

Big Boy – Day 2

Today was encouraging again.  Bubba stayed dry through the night and then went straight to the potty with no coercing! We only used 3 pair of undies all day – including big boy pants during nap! What a champ.

Best story of the day – I was sitting on the floor in Bub’s room and saw his dash across the hall to the bathroom.  He walked in, went straight to the potty, and climbed up.  That’s right – he didn’t do the whine/pant thing he has been doing when elimination is inevitable – he went straight to the potty.  After finishing he looked up at me and said, “Get some candy, please.”  Our God is so good

Thank you for your prayers on our behalf.  Can I ask you to lift us up again for these specific things?

1.  That Bubba would poop.
2.  That Bubba would potty facing forward tomorrow.  This could become an awkward thing at school, eh?
3.  That Bubba continues to grow in this area and “catching on” to the world of the big boy potty.
Thank you for your friendships and prayers.
