Owen


Owen is such an amazing child! He keeps us on his toes with his outright stubborness and quest for independance. One morning before school was out, he insisted on wearing his wool knit cap, socks, and his crocs. It was in the high 90's but he wore them all day. His school was introducing potty training to him the last couple months but he was not interested. He would say "No, I go in a diaper." Even last week, I tried to get him to use the potty and he said "No, I not want to." But after we visited Connor's Montessori School for an end of the year picnic on Monday, Owen wanted to go to that school. I told him he can't go unless he uses the potty. So, low and behold, he woke up on Tuesday and asked for underwear. He has had 2 accidents between then and now (Thursday afternoon). He even uses the potty when we are out and about. When he makes up his mind about something, he is going to do it. It is amazing! We love him for his sweetness, sense of humor, stubborness, and the way he smiles. He is a joy!
