(Sorry if this is TMI.) I'd say an average day for me was changing 4 BMs, so any reduction makes a big difference in my quality of life. And, for the record, in the meantime Drake completely regressed, then progressed, and has had some accidents, but by and large is on his way.

FANTASTIC news! Few milestones are quite as wonderful as no longer needing to change nappies (er...'diapers'). Hooray! PS. I love reading your book reviews regularly, too.

And I'm so proud of you for your insight. I admire you for that...it's something I lack! Patience is a very hard thing to learn...and I caution you to be careful what you wish and pray for. Someone prayed for patience and got 10 kids. Not my idea of fun, but taught him patience alright. Congratulations. You and Ggrod had absolutely nothing to do with it, and I'm so happy for you...now it's waiting on the next one. I swear, potty training two kids definately sent me over the edge. Much love.
