Words to live by...

From the fullness of His grace we have received one blessing after
another

Remember who you are and you will walk through life blessed and beautiful

When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things

Children are a gift from God

Never underestimate the power of prayer

We won the LOTTO!!!

Okay, well, not quite........................but it sure feels like it this past week because Reece finally pooped in the toilet!!! We've been struggling with the PT (potty training) thing for a while with him. He was quite confident in keeping his pull-ups dry, but was petrified of pooping in the toilet. We were even able to get him to tell us when he had to poop and he would head to the bathroom and sometimes even squat next to the toilet. So, in my opinion, he had it all figured out - it was simply a will-power/control issue with us - nice! Now you're probably wondering how it worked, right?!! Okay, those of you with weak stomachs or who just get grossed out easily proceed with caution...............but I'm sure if you're a follower of this blog you're aware I'm a mom of three boys and that's part of life! So, Tim got him to sit on the toilet with a diaper on (but only secured with the help of Tim's hands) so when Reece went to the bathroom, Tim quickly whisked the diaper away and PRESTO! We had poop IN THE TOILET!!! Okay, enough bragging.......it's happened twice since then so we've started a habit (I hope). Stay tuned.....

my nephew Jack went through the SAME thing! He would wear underwear but ask for a diaper to poop in and then go stand in the bathroom with the door shut. He told us he had to go to his "workroom". Hilarious!
