Default replace motion sensor with dimmer switch?

Hi, I have a motion sensor switch in my new bathroom. It's all up to code
and
inspected, but I need a dimmer switch in my bathroom, not a motion sensor
switch.
When I went to replace the motion sensor switch I was surprised to find 4
wires
(not 3) going to the switch: black (hot), white (neutral), ground and
something
labeled "load". My dimmer switch only has connections for the first three
wires.
What do I do with the wire labeled "load"? BTW, this is the only switch
for the
bathroom light. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Steve
