Holy heck, it’s promo week! Okay. So… what I do now? Well, one thing that’s going on is Cobblestone Press is being hosted at The Pink Posse yahoo group all week! The three stooges (as Deanna and Sable have begun to call us) Loribelle, Sara and I, are going to be chatting on the yahoo loop all day tomorrow answering questions, holding contests, and give peeks and info at our books! So check it out if you’d like. To subscribe to the group just send an email to thepinkposse-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

Other than that I’m not sure how to promo. Besides screaming at the topping of my lungs “Please, oh please buy my book!” But no one can hear me since we’re online. And my neighbors already think I’m a nuts. Oh, I do have a contest on my site that ends on Wed! http://www.shellistevens.com/funstuff.htm

Okay, now onto the juicy stuff. I’m desperately trying to figure out how to potty train Emma. Okay, not desperately, because my lanta it takes a lot of energy. But I have been showing her videos like “Potty Power” and “No More Diapers” and she thinks they’re great, but it does nothing to motivate her to tinkle in the potty. I read books, we sit side by side on our toilets, but nothing. She did however want to wipe her bottom today, even though she didn’t do anything. That’s my daughter, always wanting to skip ahead to the next level.

I did buy Care Bear stickers today as bribery and so far haven’t broken down and given them to her. And she really wants them. She runs to the potty and sits down. For like 30 seconds, and then she’s up again.

How did you guys do it? Is there an easy way to get your kid out of diapers?
