The other day I had a stark realization. My son is not a baby anymore. I now have a boy who needs molding, teaching, and a good dose of loving discipline. My parenting is taking a turn and becoming a bit more intense. I love it.
Alex can, and will pull up his own pants after going potty! If you have heard the stories, you know what a triumph that is. He still has potty accidents, but overall is doing well.
He is helping to clean up messes and taking his plates to the sink. On that note, we have had to put away our adult glasses and have purchased plastic ones instead as too many have been taken by little hands and dumped into the kitchen sink where they inevitably shatter.
I am loving bedtime with him more than ever. I have just finished the Winnie the pooh chapter book. I read one chapter each night and he sits and listens so well. I am now saving the little books for a short nap story and trying to find some other chapter books that wouldn't be too far over his understanding. Suggestions are appreciated.
