let me help you

kate has decided that it's time to potty train sam. in the past 2 weeks or so she thinks he ought to try to sit on the potty and try to pee before bedtime. now i was in NO hurry to rush him to potty training since he's still pretty young, he's a boy and we're in the middle of a transition with lots of change.

however, this is not stopping "sissy" from helping her brother.

one night she sat him down on the little potty then popped up on the big potty herself. we then heard, "okay sammy, go potty not. go pee pee."

he did it. "yoook mamma, dahdee, i wen' pee pee!"

he's now done it about 5 days in a row. on command for his sissy, kate.

how did she do that?

next on her agenda...teaching him to wipe.

"sam," she said, "here take this toilet paper an' wipe from da front to da back..."

he looks between his legs with a quizzical expression...
