Another Oldest Story
Our boy isn't exactly the biggest risk-taker (except in Shesh-Besh), and sometimes funny outcomes stem from this character trait.
I have always bought tear-free shampoo for the kids, but have always cautioned against getting soap in their eyes in an effort to teach them for "one day." One day, they wouldn't have "no more tears" shampoo and they'll need to know what to do. Last week we ran out of the shampoo we brought with us from the US and our oldest was the first to notice that the new one isn't tear-free. He started shrieking in the shower complaining that he was blind and needed me to run out and buy "normal" shampoo. I told him to get used to it, and that at 10 years old he should take a shower like a man. And then I left him to his own devices.
Next morning, I saw his solution. Goggles on the floor of the shower. :-)
