		<description>Girl, I not suggesting that you potty train unless you and Rooke are ready! Goodness knows with wee Gretchen, you may want to hold off. According to three day potty training, the best time is 18-24 months. Since we were driving around 15 states during that time, we waited until we were back in China and settled before we even attempted potty training. Our little guy was 28 months when we started potty training in three days and it was pretty much text book. I&#039;m glad we waited. He definitely had interest in the potty at 24 months. At that time we started offering the potty before/after bath, etc. just to get him familiar with the process.</description>

		<description>I LOVE the expressions on your face in the pictures of you and your little guy playing together - such joy!

Yes, Gretchen&#039;s hair is a little red like Rooke&#039;s.  Not quite as orange, but at least strawberry blonde.  She looks just like he did at birth. 

How dare you suggest that Rooke is ready to start potty training?! =)  Now I&#039;m forced to really think about it . . . may I request you as my personal potty-training coach when the time begins?  I loved your account of the adventure-in-training.</description>
