Some of you might find this post disturbing to read. Honestly, it feels weird writing it. But it’s a milestone in Troy’s evolution, so it needs to be recorded. Tonight, while he was in the bath, Troy told me that he felt poop coming out. He said he wanted to go to the toilet, so I picked him up and carried him in there. It took him a few minutes to relax enough to accomplish the goal, but we had success! Troy’s first poop on the toilet. It also happened to complete his toilet dinosaur chart, so we were able to reward him with a prize. I thought this was monumental enough to warrant a big prize, so I gave him the Therizinosaurus, the latest antagonist from Jurassic World: Dominion. He loved it with its bird feathers and gigantic claws, but will it make enough impact to convince Troy to tell us more often that he needs to go to the potty? Or was it simply because he didn't have the safety of the diaper to fall back on? For now, we'll take the small victory.
