I figured, why not include everyone else in this great adventure of potty training my first child. I'll try to keep it clean...
Today's worst moment... All-out temper tantrum with flailing arms and legs and top-of-his-lungs screaming all because he needs VERY badly to pee but doesn't want to do it.
Today's best moment... Yelled down the hall from the bathroom in a sweet two-and-a-half-year-old voice: "Mommy, I doing it!"
Today's funniest moment... "Mommy look at me!" coming from a bare-bottomed boy with bright green Toy Story 2 underwear worn on head like a well-fitting cap. Apparently at this age your bottom and head are the same size.
Today's most insightful moment... The boy's daddy contrasts our frustration and dwindling patience as parents of a squirming child who refuses to go potty to God's never-ending patience with His children who squirm and wiggle and refuse to do His will.

Potty training isn't just an adventure, it's a way of life, but thankfully, only for a short season. I survived potty training the first child, but am entering this second season kicking and screaming . . . Oh, wait, it's my son that's kicking and screaming, or is it my husband . . . ?
I've been right in the midst of many a struggle with a child and realized that I probably sound the same way to God. He teaches us to teach with love.
Actually, heads and butts are always the same size for wearing tightie whities.

Thank you Pat for that, um, useful piece of information.
