Potty Training Stress Disorder

I've cleaned up more bodily secretions from the carpet today than I've ever cleaned in all my daughter's diapered days.

I'm stuck in a state of vague astonishment at the fact that I'm a parent and I'm potty-training my child!

Indelibly etched in my mind is the image of my daughter standing bent over, legs astraddle and curiously watching the stream of her urine splash soggily on the already saturated carpet.

Or her standing on her booster seat at dinner peeing on her feet while looking dismayed.

I guess I'll be scrubbing the carpets once a week now.

Tomorrow will be better. I hope.

Almost two months later, I thought I'd point out that it is better. :) We had a full, successful day!
