Sophie potty trained in 2 days!

Sophie never ceases to amaze mommy. At 2 years and 5 months she is fully potty trained... And she did it in 2 days!  On the first day there were a couple of accidents. By the second day she could tell us whenever she needed to shi shi or pang sai. And she doesn't even wet her diapers at night!  In 2 days!  I am still overjoyed and I can't believe my little ace  could do it in 2 days. Josiah was only potty trained at 2.5 years old and still wore diapers at night time for a long time before he could do away with night time diapers.

The fall

Darling Sophie had a very bad fall on 12 May 2015 which required 5 stitches. The accident is still so fresh in my mind. I have been putting off writing about it because it is just so heart wrenching that I wish to forget and erase it forever but failed so miserably. The sight of her blood gushing from the cut and staining her whole face, clothes,  floor and on me as I carried her is still so raw and will forever be etched in my mind. The whole incident has left a profound impact on the way I view safety. With toddlers we must always be on alert and never ever think that the worst will never happen to my children. How wrong I was. Now I have baby proofed every nook and cranny and sharp edges. It looks ugly but it's got nothing on the safety and well being of my children which is the utmost important thing right now. I am so sorry that mommy did not look after you diligently which resulted in a scar on your forehead. I hope it fades in time.
