No More Shopping?


Sometimes your kids reveal something about the voice you unintentionally give to your private thoughts. Such as my personal motivation for someone's success at potty training. Yesterday I bought a new pack of 15 night-time diapers. We will be home in 18 nights. So I made the comment that he would make mommy very happy if he could go even three nights with a dry diaper.

This conversation with Rooster tells me I might need to work on keeping my inner monologue, well, inner:

Me: Are you going to keep your diaper dry for me tonight?
Roo: Yep! Then you won't have to go shopping any more!
Me: That's great! I would love it not to have to go shopping ever again!
(Silence)
Roo: (in a worried voice): But wait a minute, Gramma doesn't have any cookies.
