Potty Training


When we started potty training this week, my confidence level was low. I was sure we would have accidents all day long for weeks. In fact, a mere 3 hours into day 1, and I was ready to throw in the towel. But Patch has surprised me. We have had one accident since day 1 (we are on day 4). We have gone out in public. Patch had to wait his turn at Chipotle, and held it. Yesterday we made the 30 mile trek west to pick up Flower, and he was totally fine. I hope it's not premature to hang a sign on our house that declares "Mission Accomplished!" but I feel like he gets it enough to be considered trained. Way to go, Patch.
