Economical


You see that?
That is the tush of a small fry wearing big-girl panties.
I guess third time the charm.
This child did not want to be potty-trained. We tried, unsuccessfully, twice before this, but I never forced it. (She'd show signs of readiness, but as soon as the endeavor began she would hem and haw and inform me, "I wear baby diapers.") Luckily, I have wise women (mom, mom-in-law, sister and sister-in-law) on speed dial who kept repeating to me "when she is ready, she's ready. You can't force it."
Maybe I should stitch that on some sampler.
All I know is that for the first time in 19 months, I will be buying diapers for ONE.
