Anna went back to school today and I was nervous about her first day in underwear there. All break-long I've been telling Anna she could use the potty with Minnie, her favorite teacher, and this seemed to be a positive thing for her since she loves Minnie and even said she wants to invite her to her birthday party. Wouldn't you know that on Saturday night we got an email saying that Minnie had to leave Geoje Island and won't be at the school any more. I have no idea why she left but I was super nervous about how Anna would handle this news in relation to school in general but also in relation to using the toilet at school. I told her Minnie moved away and that she'd have to go with Emmie or May to the bathroom. She acted like this would be ok (although I could tell that she was sad).
So, I went to pick up Anna from school today and saw that she was still in the same clothes I dropped her off in so I was hopeful that the potty thing went alright. She didn't go at school. It's not clear to me whether her teachers brought her in or if they asked her if she needed to go and she said, "no." I'm anticipating a few accidents before she'll use the bathroom with one of her teachers though but I believe she "held it' the first few times she went to school this fall based on the major diaper leaks she had when she got home and finally relaxed...
I was using school as the test on her training (she hasn't had an accident since day six) so I'm not sure what to make of this result.
