A Potty is Not a Train

This was too cute to keep to myself. Okay, I think I can officially say that Iva is potty trained! She has been doing absolutely great at telling us when she needs to go and she hasn't had any accidents in a little over a week! Praise the Lord! She is getting it!!

Anyway, I was just sitting at the computer and the kids were just put down for a nap. I hear footsteps coming and I look to see who it is. It's Iva and she has come to tell me that she needs to go potty :-) I get up right away and we head on into the bathroom and I get her all situated and walk away for a second. I come back to help her get all cleaned up and I praise her for being such a big girl and telling Mommy that she needed to go potty. She knows that she gets a treat whenever she tells us that she needs to go, so she promptly asked for some marshmallows. I told her that she would get her treat because she told me that she needed to go. I said to her, "You are doing so good! You are potty trained!" She looked up at me and said, "My potty isn't a train!" I wasn't sure I heard her correctly so I asked her to tell me what she said again and once again she said, "My potty isn't a train!" I thought that was so funny! I mean, what are the words potty and trained supposed to sound like to a 2 year old! She knows what a potty is and she knows what a train is and she knew that her potty wasn't a train! I bet she was thinking, what in the world is Mommy talking about!?! The potty is just a potty, not a train!

Anyway, like I said, I just had to share this because I knew it would make you smile :-) Iva is doing so well, and we couldn't be more proud of her! She is such a joy and we love her very much! Way to go Iva Dough! We love you!!
