Well. I’m not sure that I’d call Day 1 “progress”, but it’s a start. Right after breakfast, Carly and I had a little chat…Carly Anne: “What deese? What dis money for”
Mama: “Those are coins that mommy, daddy, and Macy get for every time we go potty in the potty.”
Carly Anne: “Oh. Where mine?”
Mama: “You don’t have a cup yet because you’re still wearing diapers.”
Carly Anne: “Oh.”
Mama: smiling a gigantic supportive smile...“Do you want to have a cup that you can put a coin in when you go potty like a big girl?”…still smiling…
Carly Anne: “No”…and runs off.
So. Maybe not “progress”, but definitely “steps”. Carly did clap and scream like an itty bitty cheerleader whenever one of us went potty today, but is currently uninterested in having her own cup. But the article did say that it could take a few days for the kiddo to be into the idea Huh…for now, my fingers are still crossed.
