Do you think I would sell any books if I wrote one? We have had a struggle with potty training. Thanks to some hints from our friend Jennifer, we are doing a lot better. The things I have found that work:
1. Prayer
2. Not giving treats for any other reason. Not for being good in the grocery store or any other reason. Only potty merits treats.
3. A sticker chart for each time she goes.
4. Putting her on the potty whether she wants to or not. Big mistake earlier was to ask and see if she wanted to go. We go every 30-45 minutes.
We've had a few accidents this weekend, but for the most part it has been a blessing. Woody did have a good suggestion for when we went out. We put a pullup over the panties as extra insurance. It worked last night. Good idea, sweetie!
One other funny story that also involves our friend Jennifer. She invited us out to lunch yesterday with her family after church. We had a good time of fellowship and food. Then, we went to say goodbye. Natalie was to hug everyone. She hugged everyone, but she also had to kiss one of Jennifer's boys, Jo-Jo (short for Jonathon) on the cheek. So, later when we were asking her what she learned in Sunday School, she said, "I kissed Jo-Jo." That was the big thing for the day! But, she did at least have some other details from the morning that were more what we wanted to know!
