Mama! I got Maddox on the potty!
Dear Olivia,
My heart is full for you at this moment. You are a very intuitive little girl. You are aware of other's needs, well beyone even my own adult ability. You have a way of cheering up everyone around you. People just WANT to be around you.
Lately we have been trying to get your brother interested in the potty. Maddox has been quite adamant about his diaper, but has slowly become interested as he sees his little friends taking the time to actually sit on the potty. Today I took off his diaper and asked him if he wanted to go to the potty...he (of course) said no and you both headed upstairs. Next thing I know, you are racing to the head of the stairs yelling, "Mama, mama, come quick! I got Maddox to go on the potty! He is pooping on the potty!"
Now he didn't quite poop, but he did get a couple of tinkles in there and he was excited with smiles and screams and we all celebrated together.
But I just wanted to celebrate you, too. Because you are so willing to be obedient, kind, giving, thoughtful of others. You teach me the thing I need to be better at.
Thank you, my dear.
Love,
Your mama
