It make me feel good to know that you're out there feeling like there are things to talk about even when they don't all go together.

Especially since you are reading all those wonderful things I'm sure you wrote about your husband...to him. <br />Mikelle and Clark...those 2 names sure sound cute together!Grandma Honeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09587160523698527979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928545399620364419.post-72009797295866559842010-01-26T08:35:15.938-08:002010-01-26T08:35:15.938-08:00I understand that "zone".

I remember being like that with Sean just soaking up every drop he had to say and never wanting to be away. Ah.<br /><br />I love the Asking Jane blog too.

I want him to potty train because I know he can, but I think part of me is holding back because then I'll have to spend so much time in the potty with him...especially when we go out. I'll always have to worry about the cleanliness of store bathrooms that I would normally just "hold it" through. We did buy a 'car potty' from Ikea to keep in the trunk for those gotta go now moments (because we ever leave the house!). Sigh! Right now I'm using dumdums as pee treats and little rice crispie treats as poop treats. And of course we have stickers for just giving it a try. It's so much easier to potty train at bedtime though. I think he just likes to use the flashlight to watch- apparently being a boy is lots of fun. Let me know if you discover any brilliant training ideas!!Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05757237565659567374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928545399620364419.post-37693296340481983792010-01-26T06:17:11.562-08:002010-01-26T06:17:11.562-08:00Natalie, this was the perfect post to start my day...Natalie, this was the perfect post to start my day. I read your mom's last night and have been kind of simmering those thoughts around this morning wondering what things in my life use up more energy being undone than just doing them. Laundry- perfect example. I'm off!<br />Oh, and the only wisdom I've gained on the potty training front (although each kiddo is so different who knows how well it can be reapplied) is that it was way more about me than him. Am I ready to do the loads of laundry that it will intail, am I mentally prepped to not let my disapointment/ frustration show too much with accidents, is the rest of my family stable enough that they will be ok if I spend a handful of days focused on helping him get on that potty train? Once you decide you're ready and you think he is, just ask for lots of prayers and don't turn back :) Good luck!Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03163210401872900863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928545399620364419.post-76353651315573138422010-01-26T05:35:36.980-08:002010-01-26T05:35:36.980-08:00No way!!

I totally want to call you right now, but two problems: I don't have your phone number, and you are in a different time zone so it's probably way too early for you. I'm reading your blog post--because I love your blog--and I see a picture of my cousin on your blog! What the random?! Marlee is dating Clark Knowlton from CA, right? He's my cousin. Our moms are sisters. I heard he had a girlfriend, but I didn't know that she was from one of the greatest families I know! No seriously, this is pretty cool. It's a small world. Good luck on the laundry. I've got a lot and that's going to be my one goal for the day. Wish me luck!Heidi Crosbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05351820538227302001noreply@blogger.com
