You know those days when you've gotten a great nights sleep, you wake up to sunshine and happy kids and you think to yourself, "Life is great." Life is great, but today was not one of those days. The sun was shining and I was optimistic about the day until my one-year old woke up early, my three year old thought potty training is sitting on the potty after you pee your pants, and right after getting dressed spilling a glass full of milk all over myself and then realizing that I have no other clean clothes because today I was going to do laundry. I have to admit, I did cry over spilt milk today. My sweet little 3 year old was very concerned for her seriously hysterical mama. I decided today that sometimes it's okay to cry over spilt milk. Because you have a good cry, clean up the milk and life goes on. After that spat life got a lot better, and yes the sun was still shining.
"I have little doubt that many of us are troubled with fears concerning ourselves. We are in a period of stress across the world. There are occasionally hard days for each of us. Do not despair. Do not give up. Look for the sunlight through the clouds. Opportunities will eventually open to you. Do not let the prophets of gloom endanger your possibilities (President Gordon B. Hinckley from
Ensign, Apr. 1986, 4–5)."

Yeah, Emma had the same problem with telling after she peed that she needed to go potty. And we still have one or two accidents a week. Hope the rest of the day goes better and Gabi gets the hang of potty training soon.
May I add...it's ok to cry over spilled milk or realizing that you have no more chocolate in the house:)
