Potty Training

Potty Training Today I tried to teach my son How to use the potty, oh what a treat He sat and sat and sat and sat While I tapped my feet After what seemed like an hour Finally I gave in And placed a diaper on his butt As my patience ran too thin Then within a few seconds I smelled a familiar smell Though it was one I recognized Still it smelled quite foul Oh Christian, what have you done? Why didn’t you use the potty? To trick your daddy like you did Really is quite naughty So very quickly I laid him down Changed him, and threw it in the trash Gently put on some powder So he doesn’t get a rash Then once again I sat him down On his brand new potty And after he sat and sat and sat I wondered who was the smarty? Today I tried to teach my son How to use the potty, oh what a mistake He sat and sat and sat and sat How much more of this can I take? (oh the memories)

Oh I remember the potty chair / and oh what fun she had / she used that thing to torture / her unsuspecting dad
