Congrats, Burrell, Franny sounds like a take charge gal who's going places.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I have memories starting from when I was 2 or 3. But I think they're memories of memories....
I remember (when I was being potty trained) hiding in the corner and taking a dump in my pants. And how my mom was mad when she had to clean me up.
That might be the last time I've shit my pants.

I think he's just too busy creating chaos to take time for potty breaks.
Takes after his father, it seems. (I meant the chaos bit, not the potty breaks)
And far too busy with important pursuits.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
She wanted to look like her big cousins did in their bathing suits, so I told her if there was no pull up, all her pee and poop had to be in the potty. She said okay, and that was that.
Ha--this is exactly how it worked for my niece. "I want to go to preschool like D!" (big brother) "Well, to go to preschool you have to be potty-trained." "Okay!" And wham, using the toilet. Should I ever have children, I should be so lucky.

What is even happening?
These stories always make me slightly suicidal.
I know. I would be sorry, except I pre-paid up to my nose with Benjamin, and paid a little bit of interest in arrears with Christopher. Believe me. I deserved the break that was Julia. She was 17 months when Chris was born. Ben was four years old, at the time. I think she took one look at big brother, and one look at squalling infant, and decided who she was going to identify with and emulate.
Also, within six months, she had severe (parental TMI) constipation problems (that started after a stomach virus), so the poor little thing paid too, with prescription laxitives, no less.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, I take the time.
I edited to clarify that I meant chaos making, not no potty breaks.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I know nothing about potty training babies. However, either I'm really good at this puppy mama thing, or Oz is incredibly smart. He's taken to housetraining fairly quickly- only one accident when Mr. H didn't come home on time to let him out and he escaped his crate. Other than that it's been only outside all the time. He also has the benefit of an already well housetrained older dog to show him the ropes.

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm not sure I remember much before five or so. Or maybe I'm more sure those are mine. Or maybe that's my brain's way of protecting me from Doctor and Therapist Trauma.
