The princess and the pee.

Sophia is potty training. She is doing really well now but we had kind of a rocky start. When we first ditched the diapers, Sophia would have an accident and she would get mad. She would cry and insist on being changed immediately. Sophia will probably not appreciate this story but it is so cute it has to be told.

The first or second day Sophia was wearing her "princess panties" she was having a pretty successful day. I went to work in the evening and Norm took the kids to a local playground. The kids were playing and having a great time. At some point Norm was helping Brayden climb and he heard loud crying. He looked up to see Sophia at the top of one of arched jungle gym ladders and a steady stream of pee coming down from above! At the same time, Brayden yells,"Dad! Sophia's peeing!!!" I am glad there were no kids below her to receive an unwanted dousing! Norm was well prepared. He brought along an extra pair of underwear and was able to console the sobbing princess.

Now, several weeks later...she is very good at telling us when she has to go.
