Potty training a 4.5YO girl with a lazy bladder and a urinary tract that’s meddled with surgically when she was only 13 months old is indeed tough. I have now kept Cass diaper-free during day time and only put a pad on for her. The pad is wet every half an hour. If she does…

Off To Cold Turkey
The thick winter clothing that my mum brought to her recent trip to Turkey were warm enough for her. My mum and dad spent 10 very blissful days in winter cold Turkey, though they went cold turkey on hot weather. No pun intended hehe. They went on a hot air balloon ride and the strong…
