Warning: Icky content to follow

So I shared last week that Ben made some poop in the potty. Which we were all extremely excited about. Here's the deal we made with him: If he goes in the potty, Brian will run the train in his bedroom for him. (For those of you who don't know, Ben has a model train that run on a shelf around his room.) I guess this was a good motivator, because he has made poop in the potty two more times since I last reported. So here's where I think I've gone wrong. The poop he's made has been pretty small. So the first two times I thought 'okay he's getting use to this, when he's more comfortable he'll make more'. But now I think I was wrong because instead of getting bigger, the poop is getting smaller. We've jokingly referred to Ben as Lazy Larry because he so laid back and is perfectly content having you do most things for him. Now it's seeming truer than ever since he's putting forth the minimum effort to get his reward. Heaven help his future employers.
