Today I guess is the happiest day of my life .. I am so happy I just need to shout and tell it to everyone around ..
Did I win a lottery ? No
Did I get a promotion ? Fat chance. Note : need to bad mouth that horribly competent colleague of mine !!
Did I get a new car ? Hmmm I wish
Did I buy a new house ? Ha ha .. haven't you heard of credit crunch ??
Did my hubby say he loved me even I am old and wrinkly and ugly ? Hang on he hasn't told me !!! Note : drama tonight
Ok give up ???
My son pooped in his potty !!!! Yes !!!! I am thrilled to bits. Non-moms out there can sneer and laugh, but any mom worth her salt will know what I am talking about. Its the dreaded potty training time. I had bought a toilet seat just when he turned 2 and a potty soon after. But they just lay there , one gathering dust and the other being used as a storage for toys ... He refused to sit on them and cried at the mention of a wee.
Then few days back I took a deep breath and decided to free him from his diaper. So there he sat in his UW .. he was amused by it. There was an accident and he didn't like it one bit. Next day again same routine and this time I watched him like a hawk. The slightest change and I ran to get the potty and made him sit on it. Yesssss the first wee in the potty !!! We did a war dance around the potty. This time he thought Amma had gone crazy !!! But he got the idea . Next day (17th Marc 2009) he came up to me and said 'Amma fast potty' .... I ran like my life depended on it. Made it just in time. First wee on his own !!! From then on it was easy, every few minutes he would come up and say 'Amma potty' .. and go .. Didn't know they weed so much !!!
Anyways come 20th March 2009. Early morning rush to get him to pre-school. I asked him if he wanted to wee , he said yes and he was on the potty when sniff sniff ...now what is that smell .. I didn't fart ... sniff sniff .... that smells like poop !! Peeped in and yes his first poop in the potty. Initially he was a bit upset but our excitement rubbed off and soon he finished his job on it !!!
All the way from home to office I was bursting with excitement. I simply had to tell someone ... whom do I say ? The single 20 something colleagues in office ? Can imagine their look of disgust !!! So here I am bursting with excitement. Singing and whistling ... I don't care what people think .. My son has pooped in his potty and that is all that matters to me !!!
