How can a kid who loves the water...

...be afraid of the bathtub? Isn't it just like a little indoor pool?

Grace still takes a bath in the kitchen sink. Don't get me wrong, I like it. It is quick and easy and, I guess if she still fits in it, what's the harm? But someday soon she won't fit so we have been trying to desensitize her to the shower/bathtub. Kyle did a great job last weekend, although his clothes got soaked!Grace was so afraid that she wouldn't step away from him, sit down, or let me wash her hair. And that was progress!

Kyle is one of the good guys! Nice try. Maybe the tub needs to be filled with water and all the floating Elmos are in it first. Just a thought.
Good Job Kyle.
Love Nana

Aunt Phyl is still laughing at Kyle with you in the tub. How very funny.

Oh!! What a good attempt!! Have you tried taking a shower with her? If she sees you doing it it may help. Mayna loves taking showers.
