Small Successes

Danielle Bean encourages all of us in the trenches of motherhood to encourage each other. Here are a few highlights of my week:

1. John is potty trained! Yes, I shared this last week, but I'm still on cloud nine. Let's just say my previous two forays into this arena were l-o-n-g and y-u-c-k-y. This was amazingly quick and not too yucky at all.

2. Ainsey can clap! She also likes to dance when she hears loud music. As we left Kolbe's baseball game Tuesday, a marching band was practicing. Ainsey went wild!

3. We enjoyed an afternoon at the pool yesterday. I was apprehensive about handling two non-swimmers, but all went well thanks in part to my many friends who offered to hold Ainsey. John loved the water! He didn't love leaving, but, hey, we're focusing on the positive here.
