The Big Business - We're almost there!

Ok, some of you have commented to me that you feel very stressed for me with this toilet training business. Ok lah, it's really not that bad. The day after Caleb had that little missed attempt, he has been quite good. He has been telling me whenever he needs to poo and has been following me to go sit at the toilet bowl. I was really proud of him yesterday morning coz we went to a friend's house and in an unfamiliar environment, he was able to tell me that he needed to poo and allowed me to bring him to the toilet to do his business. And he was really quite funny coz the toilet bowl hole looked bigger than the one we have at home and he said,"Look, the hole so big. Later I fall inside." I assured him that I'll hold on to him and he wouldn't fall. After he had finished his business, and I praised him. He said,"Remember, last time I poo poo on the floor at home and outside? So terrible right? That was so terrible of me right?" He was so funny. I couldn't help but laugh.
And for the last 4 days, he has been taking his afternoon nap without wetting his bed at all. He would go to the toilet once he wakes up, so I think, we're getting there!
Yah, before I scare all the parents out there who are going to toilet train their children, it's really not that bad. You just got to persist on and get past the first few days and you'll be fine!
