We’ve been thinking a lot about potty training lately at our house. Sebastian is nearing 3 years old and has no interest in ‘going on the potty’. We’ve bought fun underwear, we’ve bribed with M & M’s, we’ve threatened that he can’t go places and I’ve just begged. Bottom line (pun intended), he’s not ready.
Several of our friends have children who have mastered the act and I’ve felt the pressure, but deep down know that he’s not ready. I realize that he won’t be 18 going off to college wearing a diaper, but I’m ready. I’m ready to stop changing his diaper that he can tell me is dirty and I’m ready to stop buying diapers. But once again I’m reminded as a parent that there are moments that I will be ready for when he’s not and I’m also sure that there will be moments that he will be ready to get through and I will want to hold on to.
Until then, we will still be in diapers and will probably wait until closer to his 3rd birthday to really work on it. Here’s wishing us luck- we need it!!
