As you know, we are diligently trying to potty train our son. Progress has been slow. Very slow. Gryffin will sit on the potty now, and he will (usually) tell you when he needs a diaper changed, but he has yet to actually "use" the potty.
Yesterday, he asked if he could "go potty like Daddy?" We figured this meant he wanted to stand. Encouraged by his enthusiasm, we agreed and helped him into the bathroom. We stripped him down, positioned him in front of the potty, and then cheered him on (You can do it! Go pee pee! We're so proud of you!)
Unfortunately, nothing happened. After a couple of minutes, Gryffin turned to us, frowned, then pointed at himself and said "It won't work."
What in the world can you possibly say to that???
