Payton and I did not have the greatest of days yesterday; in fact we have not had a very good week. We started potty training and she is doing good, but I think that change and maybe something in the water has put Payton in an unpleasant mood, which is something I struggle with. Anyway yesterday, we had several potty accidents, and several crying fits (she really did not want anything to do with me yesterday), and I just couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. Well Reddin knew I needed a break so he had his parents watch Payton so we could go to a movie. We had a good time and when we got back from our date, we got a good report. They said Payton was great, no accidents, and happy as could be (don't you just love when your kids are always better for other people). Anyways I decided just to mark it off as another day in hopes that the next one would be better, but on our way home Payton got sick (so sad). I felt so bad, that is probably why she had so many accidents and why she was in a bad mood, because she did not feel well. I felt horrible, I tried to clean her up the best that I could, but I just wanted to hold her. She slept through the night, but today she has a fever and just wants to cuddle. I am so glad that I am her mom. I know we have hard days, but they are worth it, especially on days like today, when all she wants is to be close to mom and dad.

Dang it! Potty training is hard enough without throwing in a bout of sickness. Hope she feels better soon. And I wish you luck on the potty training quest...
Oh, could I give you advice, but I have found over the years the unsolicited advice comes across as criticism. You are such a good mom, I wouldn't worry about it too much. And above all, Payton knows she is loved!
I hope you're all feeling better and that things around your house are getting back to normal- love you all!
Oh potty training- no fun!! I hope she's better soon and good luck with the accidents (I am not looking forward to Hannah potty training...although it's supposed to be easier with girls). Let me know what works!! We miss you tons!!
