When a Strong Will is Helpful

I didn't plan on trying to potty train Creed today, but I mentioned to him that M&M's would be involved when he did go potty. Creed took it upon himself to try to go today. He started on the big potty in the bathroom, but when the rest of us wanted to go outside, he opted for this makeshift bucket with a potty topper.

Creed on the potty: 3:24 P.M.

Creed going strong; reading a book to pass the time: 3:45 P.M. A little snack of grapes should pass the time: 3:56 P.M.


Brother West, like the trainer in the boxing ring, gives Creed a little pep talk and tries to expedite the situation: 4:14 P.M.The sun has shifted and Creed needs a little shade: 4:28 P.M.


Creed getting a little discouraged: 4:34 P.M.
Call it: 1 hour and 13 minutes Creed sat on the potty. Without getting up. Now that is what you call ring around the bottom.
Lose the potty. Maybe going on the grass will motivate.

The cry of defeat. No potty today. Back in diapers and really mad about it. :)

West after we read Genesis 1:

"So if God created everything, who made God????"
