There are several times in a parents life when a sense of accomplishment and relief come together and a milestone has been reached. Child birth. Crawling. Walking. Talking. Potty training.

Among those listed, I am proud to reveal that Kennedi has mastered the later. It has been several weeks since we began (and when I say “we”, I really mean Juli…she’s the promoter of this milestone) and with just a few accidents…I’m beginning to feel the payoff.

After potty training… well… it feels like the end of the beginning. Sure we have the terrible twos, threes and fours to get through (and possibly fives), but for now I think Juli and I will cherish having one more child on their way to being self-sufficient.
