Baby to Boy

Most of the time Asher is not a baby anymore. He is a young boy. He makes poop jokes, acts like a robot, and throws himself on the floor for a laugh. He refuses to eat food, complains about activities and delays bedtime. He looks huge compared to his one year old sister. But sometimes, usually at bedtime, he still feels like a baby. Tonight he wanted me to read the book about Joshua and the potty. This is a book I started reading to him when he was about two years old. I wanted him to be interested in potty training and this book seemed to be a good one. A picture in the book shows Joshua and all his body parts. From top to bottom Joshua has hair, eyes, mouth, hands and a penis for going "wee wee". Then next page shows him bending over to show where poop comes out. It is all very innocent and cute, and when I read it to Asher tonight his eyes lit up and he looked just as interested as he did when he was two. We laughed at the page where Joshua pees and poops NEXT to the potty...
