Progress

The Princess is four and a half years old.

Every day since she was born, The Hubbs and I have continued pulling diaper duty. Sure, she's been wearing Pull-Ups since we started potty training three years ago (please don't ask how that's going right now), but they're diapers just the same.

Just a rough estimate: 1642 days of changing diapers so far.

And just when I thought changing time could no longer surprise me, for the first time ever, she lifted her butt to help me get her new diaper on.

It was earlier this year, and somehow it managed to go unmentioned.

She has done it every day since.

Progress in my world may not be the same as it is in yours. Here, it's the little things, the ones that so many people take for granted, which bring the most pride and joy.
