Randy Daniel Reed
With Love from Mom and Dad
October 12, 2004
Page 5
This is Randy Daniel Reed
of Bothell. He is a big boy and wants to learn to use the potty.
Page 6
This is Randy's diaper
box. Every time Randy dirties his diaper, Mommy takes out a clean one.
Page 8
One day when Randy
was playing with Kelley, he thought, "I don't want to wear diapers anymore. Kelley
doesn't wear a diaper, Kelley wears underpants. It would be more fun to play without having
to stop to get my diaper changed."
Page 9
So Randy asked, "Mommy,
can I wear underpants like Kelley?"
Page 10
Mommy said, "If you want to wear underpants,
you have to go to a toilet like a big person."
Page 11
"Okay, Mommy, I will. I promise," said Randy "Can you take my diaper off now?"
Page 12
"Not yet. First we have to go to the store
to buy a potty." Mommy said.
Page 13
"Then we will buy underpants."
Page 14
"Then I will teach you how to use the potty,"
Mommy said.
Page 15
Randy was so happy
when his mommy brought the new potty and underpants, he rushed right out to show Kelley.
Page 16
Kelley was happy too.
Now, Randy wouldn't have to stop playing just to go and get his diaper changed.
Page 18
When Randy went inside,
Mommy took off Randy's diaper and showed him how to step into his new underpants.
Page 19
"Don't these look great! You look so big
in your new underpants." Mommy said.
Page 20
Then Mommy said, "This is how you pull down your
underpants, all by yourself."
Page 22
Sitting on the potty was easy because Mommy sat
nearby.
Page 23
"I can't, Mommy, I can't," said Randy
Page 24
"Why don't I read a book to you?" Mommy asked.
"Then maybe you will be able to use the poty like a big person."
Page 26
Just as Mommy finished reading the book, Randy went tinkle in his potty for the very first time. He was so happy!
Page 27
"Very good, Randy!
said Mommy. Then she gave Randy a big hug and a kiss.
Page 28
"I like flushing the toilet!"
Page 30
"I like growing up and learning new things."
Page 32
But best of all, Randy
likes hearing Mommy telling everyone, "No more diapers for Randy, he's a big boy now."
