Potty Training(?)

Dearest Skyler,

You were quite a handful today.

In the morning, Aunty Chris had come with Mei-Mei Dawn to watch you so that Mama could cook but you made so much noise that they had to leave! This was quite surprising to Mama as you had been so excited when Mama said that they were coming up. You even grabbed a toy to pass to them and waited for them at the door! Sigh… Mama had no choice but to let you watch TV the whole time that she was preparing dinner.

You also had your first experience with using your potty to boom-boom today! You told Mama that you were booming and Mama asked if you wanted to use your potty and you said ‘Yes!’ The problem was that you had already started! :p Anyway, Mama helped you to use it but it was one big mess by the time you were done! :D Mama had to clean both you and the potty thoroughly! But, well done! You’re becoming such a big girl now!

Later in the evening, Aunty Chris and her kids came up for dinner with Mama and you as Papa had to attend a lesson at night. This was so you all could keep each other company as Uncle James was not around then either. However, once again, after some time, you got noisy and cranky again! After dinner, they had no choice but to leave! You kept on grabbing your sandals and demanded to be brought downstairs for a walk so Mama decided to give in to you.

As, it was close to the time that Papa was coming home you both came to wait for Papa at the car park so that we could all walk back together.

We quickly bathed and fed you your dinner. Papa was hoping that that would allow you to sleep earlier tonight as Papa had so many things to do and Papa was already so tired from a whole day and night of work. However, it didn’t work out that way. Sigh…

Papa tried to put you to bed but you refused to sleep and you kept on rubbing and pulling your tongue resulting in your regurgitating your night milk onto your bed and your clothes! Sigh… We had to clean up everything and give you another bath! :( Oh well…

Papa was very unhappy as that meant that Papa could not do what he had hoped to. You were so apologetic by then as you realized that Papa was unhappy but you know that Papa cannot be angry with you for long! You’re just so loved! And you don’t know what you’re doing sometimes. Papa just hopes that you’ll learn quickly though. :D

We know that you don’t mean to make us unhappy, Lil’ One, and sometimes we make you unhappy too. It’s okay! It’s normal, yes? But we’ll come to understand each other more as we go along, okay?

Papa and Mama love you!
