Sitting on the Potty: A Milestone

I am truly not at all interested in potty training, taking a cue from my little boy who seems more than happy to wear his diapers until he goes to high school.  Yet for some reason as we were leaving his potential future preschool last week, I mentioned to Finn that in order to go to school there in the fall, he would have to stop wearing diapers and instead use the potty.  As with many things that I tell Finn, he didn't really respond, so it was hard to tell if he processed this information or was thinking about trains.

As we walked in the house, I told Finn I had to go to the bathroom and asked him to come upstairs with me.  He said he wanted to go potty, too.  First I was impressed to learn that he was listening to me.  Then I was happy to plop him on the toilet for a milestone moment.  Don't get overexcited, there was no peeing on the potty, but he sat on the potty.  A step toward preschool.
