Dearest potty how I love thee! Let me count the ways:
1) I love how you cast a magical spell over children that makes them believe they need to be completely naked before resting their tushy on your thrown. Removing pants, diaper, socks and often a t-shirt while trying to complete twelve other motherly duties is my honour and pleasure.
2) I adore how you present yourself as a tool for playtime. Let's read a book, rip toilet paper, flush the toilet and run naked all in order to fully enjoy everything you have to offer potty.
3) Potty, I revel in your many forms! Snapping to the toilet seat, small and compact, removable "catcher", or converting to a step stool (yes, a step stool) we have them all. And, all the better for naked, toilet-paper-ripping, book-reading, toddler business to be done not just in the bathroom, but in the middle of the kitchen if we deem it appropriate.
4) Did I mention the clean-up? Such a treat!
5) Perhaps most awe-inspiring is your ability to seduce a toddler into insisting that NOW is the time at the most inconvenient time, simply to produce NO result. (Did I mention this is even more thrilling when the toddler INSISTS on being undressed?)
Of dear potty, I can see our future now! It is a dreamy future filled with accidents, emergencies and mad-dash-rushes to the closest restroom, but best of all it is a bum-cream, wet-wipe and diaper free future with a smaller grocery bill to boot! Potty, now it is your turn to show me some love. Please be kind to me and encourage Molly to get it done!
