When You Gotta Go You Gotta Go

On January 3rd Saffron was moved to Mrs Carrie's room 3-5yr old's meaning no more diapers! I've really been working hard with Saffron on the potty training, and like I said in the previous post she is doing well with training. In Mrs Carrie's room, there is a potty, but no potty seat. So the kids get use to holding onto the potty so they don't fall in. Now if you know Saffron she is afraid of falling into the drain, into the potty, the flush of loud toilets, among other things, so I was shocked when she came home after school one day, went into the bathroom and tossed her seat onto the floor and sat right on the toilet. Now I don't have a folding potty seat so she won't normally sit on a public restroom potty when we run errands. Today when we went to see our friend Mary, upon arrival (now she has a potty seat for us to use), Saffron got onto the potty herself, went potty, and came out when she was done. I was so proud of her. She tells me she must hang on tight so she won't fall in. The trainers are doing great and she manages to stay dry, and I still have yet to see any #2's in them!! She asked to wear her undies when she laid down to nap, and even though she has a waterproof mattress pad, I want to wait a few more weeks just to be on the safe side. Makes me smile to see how far she has come, and I hope come next month when I made the monthly diaper run, I won't have to buy anymore for her.

Keeping my fingers crossed!
