This is what is wrong with mommyblogging
Have you ever met a three-year-old? Horrible people. Little deranged convicts.

You peed! In a cup!
A few weeks ago I mentioned here that Marlo has started holding her poop (here we go!), and since then things have not progressed as much as I would have liked them to. She isn’t yet approaching me politely and asking, “May I be excused to eliminate my bowels, Master?” So, you know. I have [...]
