Not even a month ago Squeaky wouldn’t let you wash her hair without a fuss. There was absolutely no water being dumped over that girls head. There was no “hold your breath and go under” either. As you can imagine, bath time was a nightmare!
Swimming wasn’t a joy either. She might sit on the steps of the pool, but when there were no steps, she wanted to be held.
Then, one day about 4 weeks ago she must have gotten brave. Or maybe she realized how much fun she was missing out on, or how short baths could be, if she just got her head wet! She finally began letting me dump water over her head. This simple step made my life (and hers) 100% better. She could bathe and still be happy at the end.
After about a week of her letting me dump water over her head, Tim got her to put her face into the water. Amazing, I know. 4.5 years old and she was just figuring out the joys of bath time!
The other day, my sister and parents took her to the pool…I have to say a miracle happened….watch for yourself.
For now you will have to click here to see it…
oh my! that is wonderful. Sugar still won’t let me get water in her face. sigh……you give me hope though.
