Two Pots of Candy = Two Great purposes

So here you see two pots of candy, each one is for a very specific purpose. The one on the left has been very carefully counted, these M&M's represent the days Chris has left away from us. There is triple the amount so each child gets to eat one everyday and when the pot is empty he will be home. We are all still having a little bit of a rough time with him gone so this gives us all a visual and it doesn't look that bad measured in M&M's.

The second pot are skittles and they are not measured, Hailey has gone backwards with her toileting. Its been going on for a long time now and once again my Mum gives me the idea of bringing candy into the equation, this is what got her potty trained in the first place. So whenever she pees on the toilet she gets one skittle, and if or when her underwear is wet then she get to choose a skittle and throws it in the bin. If you know Hailey you will know how much she hates this and how hard it is for her to do. So just finishing day two and she has only thrown away 1 skittle. So far so good, only time will tell.
