As the summer draws to an end, and we slowly enter fall (my favorite season) - I am excited to mark the passing of another year of my two sons - Kenny will soon be 7, and Aidan will soon be 3. Kenny is looking forward to first grade and Tiger Cubs, and Aidan is just excited to get back to seeing his friends. It has been a good summer that is sadly ending, and the school year will soon begin for Nicole and myself as well.
I keep my eyes on summer next, and our return to the Shore!

Potty Training
It has been about four years since we were in full-fledged potty training mode here at the Kromer household. Kenny had just moved out of diapers a little under a year before Aidan was born. We are now in the stage again - and I am looking forward to not spending money on diapers anymore!
I am finding it quite humorous that in the three year old mind, it makes sense that right after the attempt at standing or sitting on the toilet on twenty-minute intervals, it makes sense to then pee in your training underwear. Personally, I just wouldn't think it would be that comfortable!!
Anyway, that's it for the day. The pit in my stomach is coming back as the school year is getting ready to commence once again - it is hard when you are locked into a career path that does not seem to have a lot of transitional skills and in a down economy, to find something that you can be truly happy with. Kind of like the potty training in life - you make your attempt to pee every twenty minutes, and as soon as the pants are pulled back up, you go in them!
