Cheers to the learning!!!

Well, I have been amazed by my little girl! Just when I thought all was going to be the same forever she went and taught herself something. We have been trying for a long while to learn how to pee in the potty with very little success at all. It was nothing for her to sit on the potty, but nothing would ever happen. Then, out of the blue, she ran herself to the bathroom. That is not surprising, because she usually does that, but she peed and pooped. It shocked the hell out of me. no promting, no reminding her, she just went and did it.

At that moment I was SSSOOO excited for her!  realization soon kicked in when she wet herself soon after. At that point I thought, it was just a fluke. But yet again the next day she ran herself to the bathroom twice. That is when it hit me, just let her do it. When she was ready she will just do it and that is all. I know I have to let her get it on her own, that is the way she always has been, but mom needs to help!  It has been a week since she has done this and throughout the day she has 1 accident a day, but we are always close to the bathroom or just late pulling down her panty. So, it is there and she is really getting it!  It is also already setting in her night routine. She woke me last night to go potty! She didn't pee, but the idea was there that she needed to!

She amazes me so much. Just when I get into a rut and stuck in the mundaine, she pulls something out of her sleeve and it makes me rethink it all again!!! I truly and whole heartedly have to thank whoever sent her to me. She has totally opened my eyes to what can be done, and how sweet it all is! If I ever forget that.... all are free to smack me in the head til I remember!

Now that the amazement has been commented on, here is something else that is on my mind. I guess it is another form of amazement, just other end of spectrum. I have been sitting back and listening to people for awhile and the things that people not only think, but say are beyond me!  All relating to the fires in Slave Lake. There are comments about how they are already starting to milk the system and the choices people made while evacuating!! It seems people have such a small scope of seeing things that they can't fathom other things could be possible!! Not that I am never guilty of this, but it is just getting to me right now!!!  It is all over work, and it isn't just for slave lake!

that is all ofr now, have to go get ready for work!
