There’s not much that I consider to be off limits when it comes to blogging, but one thing I’m reluctant to write about is Jude’s potty learning adventure. However, I need to you, my faithful reader(s) the following:

My kid is wearing underpants!

Would you like to know what the best thing about this whole experience is? Neither Josh nor I can take any bit of the credit. Well, unless you want to give us credit for not doing anything–not pushing, not nagging, not begging, not bribing. We did nothing. Jude did it all on his own.

Honestly. One morning the kid woke up and told me he wanted to use the potty. And he did. And then we called Josh to tell him the great news. And then Josh came home with some fancy underpants for the boy. And! It’s been great ever since. He had all of two accidents during the first two days. Just two. That’s it.

I tell you, there isn’t much that matches up to the feeling of putting away a stack of cloth diapers–for good.
