Last night, Simon took his first ever shower. His first attempt was more than a year ago; he shrieked and had to be airlifted from the premises.
But yesterday, at bath-time, Matt casually asked Simon if he wanted to shower with him, and Simon surprised us all by saying yes. He loved it! Giggled a ton, said the water was tickling him, stepped out into his own robe when he was finished, and generally had a wonderful time. He wants to know when he can shower next.
One more step on the march to big-boydom. The other milestone? Mommy didn’t photograph this momentous occasion, you will be relieved to know.
I’m sure Simon and his future prom date will thank you for that.
Papa’s thankful now.
For that, we are all thankful.
