Tommy stood nervously in the bathroom, looking up at the big boy toilet. It seemed so tall and daunting. He bit his lip, feeling scared.

His mom came in and patted his head, 'Don't worry, Tommy. It's just like the little potty, but bigger. You can do it.'

'I'm scared, mom,' Tommy admitted, his eyes watering. 'I know, sweetheart. But remember, brave boys face their fears,' mom encouraged.

Taking a deep breath, Tommy climbed onto the stool. But as he tried, he lost his balance and fell. He burst into tears.

Mom sat next to Tommy, who was nursing a small bruise on his arm. 'It's okay to fail, Tommy. The important thing is to try again,' she said.

Tommy looked up at his mom, 'Really?' he asked. 'Yes,' she nodded, 'You're my brave boy. And brave boys never give up.'

The next day, Tommy stood in front of the toilet again. This time, he was determined. 'I'm a brave boy,' he muttered to himself.

Mom held Tommy's hand as he climbed the stool. This time, he didn't fall. He looked at his mom and smiled, 'I did it, mom!'

A week later, Tommy was using the big boy toilet with confidence. He had conquered his fear and was proud of himself.

Mom stood at the door, watching him with a proud smile. 'You did it, Tommy. You're my brave boy,' she said, her eyes shining with happiness.

One day, Tommy took his little sister Lily to the bathroom. 'Look, Lily, this is the big boy toilet. Soon, you'll use the big girl toilet too.'

Lily looked at the toilet and then at Tommy. 'Will I fall, Tommy?' she asked. Tommy smiled, 'No, Lily. I'll be there to help you, just like mom helped me.'
