Zambonie Girl Renamed

[Michelle Hynes]

So you remember Grace. My Zambonie girl. The girl who I said just days ago needed a wet/dry vac attached to her tush? Well, she has amazed me once again!!

She's for real potty trained. All of a sudden.

She goes into the bathroom, closes the door and instructs me to stay out. She takes the potty ring and puts it on top of the toilet. She pushes the stool over, takes her pants down, climbs up, pees, wipes, climbs down, pulls her pants up then comes out again instructing me: "go pee on potty. You not look. Not say ' yay Grace.'"

HOLY GUACAMOLE. She's agreed that I'm allowed to say "I'm proud of you" but the child doesn't even ask for treats anymore.

Watching a movie with her big sis today she said. "Go potty mom! Peas pause it!" Sure enough she hopped off the couch, did her potty bit and came back ready to watch again.

This is a picture of my girls just after Grace came back from the bathroom. INCREDIBLE.

Perhaps she needs a new name: Incredible Grace... would Amazing Grace be too cliche'? I think perhaps not :)

And I can't stop smiling. I'm proud of me too. Just when I wanted to give up, my child only 2 years and 4 months old is POTTY TRAINED!! HOOOOOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! see? Amazing Grace :)

...and then an hour later she peed her pants :) .... hey, accidents happen! she's still amazing :)
