Polite Polly

Faith is becoming quite the character. So she was becoming a little bossy and we decided that we had better change how she was requesting things. She has started to go potty all by herself. She doesn't want any help either. So after her telling me to leave ("mommy out, shut door") the bathroom while she used it yesterday, she politely asked me to leave today. It went like this. "Um, excuse me mommy. Brooklyn potty all by self please." Where did my little girl go and when did she become so big? Then when we were upstairs mopping the floor she politely said, "Um, excuse me mommy. I need you please" as she stood in her room. This politeness is how we are trying to replace the whining in her voice. I guess it is working.
