My favorite read today.
“Having no prior experience in the matter, I always imagined that after the real work of potty training was over and done with, so too would end my responsibility to interact with someone else’s poop. The months of mining poo-shrapnel from the mysterious crevices of the male scrotal region would fade into distant memory, and I could once again enjoy a nice manicure without thinking, my gosh, whats the point?”
Oh that made me chuckle, as I’ve wondered from the start, how can poo be so hard to wipe off that little part of my baby boy’s body? I’m anxiously pushing potty training now. Ready to stop changing 4 poopies a day. Ready for some budget relief on buying less diapers. Wish me luck!

Here, my boys are both 6 months old. And I had Scott wear the same pajamas to show off their differences. I can’t help but compare. They are blood brothers but still so unique. Scott wears clothes his actual age. Jack wears clothes at least a year ahead of his age. Always has. At 6 months, Jack had more hair and it was obviously red. Scott’s hair is still kind of missing and we’re not sure what the final color will be. Everyone has different opinions on that.
Both are a joy and I love seeing them grow. I so want to be present and aware of them equally.
