Holy Shit!

She did it, she did it, she did it! Ava pooped for the first time in the potty! I’m gleeful!
Tonight, as I was helping her get ready for bed, she got that sure look on her face. ”A big one is coming, Mom,” she might have said. It’s unmistakable when she has to go, and when she goes, she really goes.
As she was gearing up, I asked Ava: “Want to go use the potty?” Sure enough, she got up and walked to the bathroom quicker than me. When I got there, she was sitting on her potty, holding on to the sides and going for it. It took awhile, as it usually does, but this time it was without tears, cries, or any other signs of distress. She just sat, pooped for awhile, and then said, “All done.” Wiped herself for awhile, and then I helped, too, mom that I am.
I gave her a huge high-five! She had a great big smile on her face.
When we got back to her room, while putting on her jammies, I asked Ava if she thought she should be done with diapers and wanted to be a big girl now. She said “yeah, all done.”
Yeah!
