Victoria conserving toilet paper
Victoria has been potty training, and with everything Victoria does, she must do so independently. She's done very well with very few accidents. However, she's using half a roll of toilet paper each time she poops! After cleaning the toilet paper out for the 3rd or 4th time, I explained to her the need to conserve toilet paper due to tree consumption, etc. I could see that she was understanding my meaning, and I felt really good about our environmental potty practices. . . As with everything Victoria does, she does nothing by halves. Soon after our discussion, I was discovering poop in the potty with no toilet paper at all. ??? Hmm, what's that smell in the bathroom? Oh wow. She did take our conversation to heart, I reflect as I inspect the source of the smell. Victoria has decided to really conserve resources, to utilize the toilet paper, and then just roll it back up on the roll. . . Yes, using it, then rolling it back up on the roll. That's what I said. Oh my! I've never experienced this with my others! We had to have another conversation about conserving, but in a clean, sanitary, non disgusting manner. :-) I love how God made her, and I'm so blessed to be her mom! She keeps me on my toes for sure!
