Jacob Peed!!!

I received a call from Amy today while at work. This is a little out of the norm, so I had to answer it quickly. I was told that school called... Uh oh, is Jacob okay? Do we need to pick him up again? It is also VERY unusual for the school to if there isn't an issue. After a suspenseful conversation, I was told that Jacob sat on the potty like he has been, but this time, there was some "sprinkling" goin' on. Jacob's teacher was very excited for Jacob and made it a big deal. This startled Jacob a little bit, but he knew that he had done something grand as he was grinning ear-to-ear and was very proud of himself. Jacob's teacher was so excited that she had to tell the office ladies, who hurried up and called Amy who in turn had to call me!!!!
For the great turning point, Jacob was given some stickers at school and hugs at school to congratulate him on a new task completed. I'm sure we will have to wait for the next time Jacob pees on the potty, but he has done it once so it is now time to be patient and continue to work with over time. Momma and dadda praised Jacob once we saw him and have discussed getting some "special" stickers and a board for his to put them on as a reward. Jacob is very much into stickers, so this could be a win-win...
