Pancakes and Potential Training

Today's not-so-favorite moments included . . .

. . . debating whether to start potty training Anna.  On the one hand, the 3 Day Potty Training lady (whose ebook was very helpful when I was training Daniel) says that 22 months is the ideal age to train, and it would be really nice to be done before school starts and our new baby arrives.  That said, I'm really not looking forward to the ordeal and its attendant accidents.  Plus, I can't quite wrap my mind around the idea of my "baby" girl being potty trained; part of me wants her to stay small and cuddly forever, even though I know that isn't how life is meant to work. Sigh.  I think I'll reread the ebook and give the matter some more thought before deciding whether to wait or take the plunge.

Today's favorite moments included . . .


. . . evaluating two Primary classes this afternoon (I'm the Primary counselor over education).  Both teachers have a great rapport with their class, and taught their material in an effective, engaging way.

. . . making pancakes for dinner.  Specifically blueberry pancakes, and multigrain pancakes topped with maple yogurt and fresh berries.  Aw yeah.

And another thing . . .

. . . I composed five posts for our family blog this afternoon (to be posted in the coming days).  It was fun to look through and comment on our pictures, and it feels good to have a bunch of posts ready to publish, but for some reason composing them is really tiring work.

For some reason, I read this as "I composted five posts". Brain was probably combining words. However, it does make an interesting opposite of what you actually wrote.
