Potty Training Ends

Yesterday was the first day my little Champ never had an accident. He told me he needed to do Potty or Pee each and every time. I looked at him yesterday and saw how much hard work had gone into making this day possible. Then I looked again and saw a Very little boy who really had to go through a lot in order to be potty trained. He put up so much with his Mom Always reminding him about where to do potty. I nagged this point so much that he would get frustrated. I also saw that he put up with a lot of my own mini-tantrums when he did have an accident. I saw my little boy and thought what an amazing, complying child he has been in this regard and how before the age of 2(21 months)- he has mastered one of the most difficult activities of childhood. I am so proud of him!

And though I have not been as patient as I should have been in this area, I also am (to an extent) proud of myself. I remember thinking that potty training is something that we may never be able to master. I thought the same thing for weaning Chetan off the breast and today we have successfully mastered both.

In both these areas, especially for Potty Training, I asked continuously for God's help. And only because of His help I was able to get through this difficult stage. So really, even for Potty Training, I say, Praise be to God!
