This morning we watched it together and after some coaxing, she decided to wear some of her Elmo panties. (You see, it has to be her decision to do something. I can't suggest that she wear panties because she won't do it. But after they had sat around for a while and she thought it was her idea, she put them on.)
I was in my room getting dressed so that we can go outside to play and she ran in and said, "Mommy! I went pee pee on the potty all by myself!" I ran into the bathroom, following her as her panties hung around her knees and sure enough, there it was! I had suggested a couple of minutes before that that we were going to play a game. I was going to set my alarm for every 20 minutes and we'd try to use the potty. But she did NOT like that idea. So she showed me. When I'd left her alone, she went on her own.
I guess we have an independent and strong-willed child...a beautiful and wonderful strong-willed child. Yay, Ada! We are so proud of you!
