June 18, 2008

1. I have no idea how single parents do it. Really. Doug is away all week and I'm not sure both Michael and I will survive. And I thinks it's going to be me who keels over from sheer exhaustion. Why won't my kid go to sleep before 11 pm? Why am I potty training [...]

Michael is slowly, oh so very slowly, potty training. And it's fine, I'm not pushing him, he is doing it at his own speed. Which is a snails pace, but whatever. I recently told him he could go to the toy store and pick out any toy he wants when he is only wearing underwear. [...]
