Potty Training Tidbits

• Never brag about how well your daughter is doing potty training because when you get home she will poop in her pants and then while you're trying to take them off poop will fly into your face. 
• Perhaps consider purchasing two identical pottys. Carrying a toddler and a potty down/upstairs at the same time is a recipe for disaster. (having 2 different ones is NOT okay. She will only want the one that is on the other floor of the house.)
• The one potty book you decide to buy will be the only book she refuses to look at. The five you got from the library she will not be able to get enough of and you will have to pay late fees because other people will have inconsiderately requested them.
• One accident free day does not imply success. She will pee on your lap while you're wearing your only clean jeans the very next day.
• Self flushing toilets are both amazing magic and the devil. It all depends on the day of the week.
• Potty etiquette requires that socks, shoes and pants be completely removed, except for when it doesn't. Heaven help you if you get this wrong. 
• She will quickly learn that telling you she needs to poop will get her out of bed no matter the hour. 
• She will quickly learn that telling you she needs to poop will allow her back into the restroom at the restaurant while your food goes cold even though she peed 5 minutes earlier. 
• She will quickly learn that telling you she needs to poop will get her out of the stroller in the middle of class. 
• She will quickly learn that telling you she needs to poop will always attract your full attention and she will use this to her full advantage at all times.
• and you must always comply because the first time you ignore them you will be peed/pooped on. 

But most importantly, always remember not to brag. Flying poop is not your friend. *shudders* I think I may have nightmares/flashbacks for weeks.....
