Self-Coaching

So there was a bath accident last night and both kids had to be herded to my shower. Dalton has always been terrified of the shower and threw fits about it. Maggie Anne loves to play in them. When she went on in, Dalton did too. They had fun playing and I ended up drenched leaning in to clean them. I was dreading washing Dalton's hair because rinsing it is usually where he flips out. Well, the time came to rinse his hair and he took a couple of deep breaths. As he stuck his head under the shower he kept saying, "You can do this Dalton. Be brave Dalton. You can do this." We almost could not keep from laughing. He was very proud that he made it through it.
