Ok...silly praise but this is a big step for us...well Collin.
He is now 8 and had been bathing himself for 1.5-2 yrs now but I could never get him to take a shower (even with one of us)
Well this morning he told me he wanted a shower, I told him OK and he got in and washed his own hair without freaking out about the shower. This is a big step for him. He used to hate the shower or rain for that.
Yes....lets hope we can do it again tomorrow

Very cool, I'm anxious for Damara to get use to showers too. I think it would be easier than filling a tub every night, getting the toys, splashing the water, using the cups to play, you know... all that "TUB" stuff! Congrats on this, I can totally relate to how wonderful this is for you!!!

Oh I wish Kaden would be consistent with it!!!! One day he is all up under the shower sticking his tongue out and enjoying it and the next he acts like it's acid and burning his skin.
My nine year old Jonathan still can't take a shower he hasn't learned the art of Mouth breathing!! LOL

(Radonna, Jelani does the same thing...like the water is acid burning his tongue! then keeps coming back for more. ) LOL Connie, I think that's SO worthy of praise- nothing silly about that! I'd be bragging too. WTG Collin! ;D Fingers crossed for tomorrow's repeat

Day 3 was with argument but he still showered. How many days makes a habit? And is that time frame increased with our kiddos like anything else ?!?! Connie
