Why "Masker"?

In college, I was a member of a sorority that was known as Maskers. There were 11 of us girls, all juniors, and 11 seniors. I was the 1997-1998 Masker #7. It was a highlight of my college years and I have used it for computer user ids since then. In the 10 years that have followed, however, I am learning the value of taking off the fake "Mask" and being true and authentic with myself and others. THAT is the purpose of my blog.

Cassie's NEW Morning Routine


Cassie usually wakes us pretty 'wet' in the mornings so she gets a bath first thing. Lately, we've noticed that she has left a little puddle while waiting to get in the tub so I've started putting her on the potty while the water runs. I snapped these pictures with my cell phone...she looks pitiful, I know...but I promise she was okay. She sat on the potty for 6 or 7 minutes...not productive but content. It's the beginning of the end to diaper-wearing...certainly not potty training officially...but just getting her used to a more grown up morning routine! (you Moms who have older babies must be chuckling over my potty-training optimism!)

I love the optimistic outlook on potty time! Keep it up!!! You will need it later on! ;) A routine is really helpful though so you are doing GREAT! Trust me our little one looks much worse during her potty time!
