We started potty training one year ago and I’m happy to report that Olivia is officially a “Big Girl!” We’ve had a good couple of months with only 1 or 2 accidents! It has been a tricky year, but once SHE decided it was what SHE needed to do for herself – she has not regressed. She is even staying dry at nights. One of the biggest motivations was getting to go spend the week at Dana’s house. (One of my friends was going to watch Olivia when we went to Portugal – she is extremely disappointed that she isn’t going to get to go now!) I am just grateful that we had some form of inspiration, because I was down to my last rope. I am so happy and proud of Olivia – she really is amazing when she’s determined!
Just one more kid to go…argh!

Good job Olivia, that will be a big help to your mom now. It reminds us of her dad, when he made up his mind to do something there was no stopping him, (maybe that is still true,) but that can be a really good trait. Big girls can do more fun things too.
