What does this sign mean?

The other day, Joshua was reading the kids a book about learning to read, and there was a section with signs to learn. When Joshua asked the kids what the Stop sign read, they got it pretty quickly, as they did a few others. Then they came to this sign (below).
When Joshua pointed to it, Ethan immediately shouted "go potty!" Joshua and I were so surprised by the resemblance that we just laughed and laughed. So of course Ethan had to try the line about 50 more times that night to see if he could evoke the same reaction. He has been working hard lately to perfect his potty training skills (he has been doing great for a long time now), so the subject must have been on his mind.

Oh, of course. It looks like they're using the potty... never saw it like that before. Oh, the perspective of a child! :)

I suppose it really does make sense! Leave it to a little boy to think of that one :)
