As I sit and write this, Connor is screaming while he sits in time out. He sits in time out because he continues to poop in his underwear. He didn't poop because he does not know...he pooped because he REFUSES to poop in the potty. In fact, he'll ask for his underwear to be put back on him after sitting on the potty just so he can poop.
Today is not the day! So he is sitting in the corner, calling for "daddy" because I'm the bad guy. I hate that. These are the times I wish Hagie was home too. So for today, I am choosing to let him sit in time out, I took away his favorite car, and he'll be going to bed after he has a bath to get the poop washed up. Next on the list is to light the candles in the house to cover up the poop smell, a nice warm bath for myself, a glass of wine and an early bedtime.
Dear Lord,
Grant me the patience I feel I don't have,
Let my child know I love him even though I have to discipline him,
and give me the strength and tolerance I need to do it all over again tomorrow!
