JackMN would like to inform the Lounge that at 4 years, 7 months,
and some days, he has succeeded in peeing in the potty not one, not two, but THREE times,in the last week.

He is proud and is thoroughly enjoying the accompanying opportunity to flush the toilet (and stick his head in it.)

That is all.

2. Right on, little dude
welcome to the pee standing up club.

Now you see why it's important to learn to write.

3. Hooray for JackMN!
Although the putting his head in the toilet part is a bit freaky. Guess he wants to make sure everything gets flushed. :)

23. Doesn't everyone? :P
I mean, it's like this big WHOOSH... then it all circles around until it disappears, and yet somehow it magically knows how far to fill back up again.

10. I can remember my first potty success like it was last week.
In fact, it WAS last week!

Good for Jack! Now that he's mastered the potty, you're going to have a difficult time getting him away from it. That beats the hell out of the alternative, though. That boy requires a special treat.

This is our fantasy Western child -- the one we never had together, after raising YOURS and MINE for 30 years.

17. Right. I've rebooted a couple of times, but no luck! Anyway, I loved your post!

Only our daughter was toilet trained by age 4.

Our sons and the grandbaby boys all took until about 6 or even 7.

You're a lucky mommy!

14. Not bad. That's about where I am!
Although I've been really good about resisting the urge to stick my head in the toilet.

21. That is true. But in all fairness...
we do keep leaving the toilet seat up. And, um, missing the, uh, target.

But we're working on it!

25. Congrats, Jack!!




Now here's where I become a little dumb and ask what will probably sound like a stupid question. Is four the normal age for potty training?

27. Congratulations Jack!
As long as you don't stick someone else's head in the toilet you're in good shape.
