With Caileigh Bear's extreme interest in bears, we figured it was time to get her over to Bupee Garling's for a visit with his bear rug. We were out playing "delivery service" with our Valentine's cards so we head over first thing in the morning. Caileigh was very unsure when she first saw the rug. The only way she would walk past was for me to hold her hand. She was quite happy to just sit on the couch and observe the bear.
Aiden was excited to see the bear!
With Bupee's help, Caileigh decided to get a little closer.
Finally, after being there for nearly an hour, and convincing herself with enough self talk that this bear was not alive and would not eat her, she overcame her fears and touched the bear.
A very successful visit!
she's braver than me!
ReplyDeleteAnd braver than me Rachel....because if that was a"cobra" carpet or a "snake" sisal, I wouldn't even be in the house!! Way to go Caileighmac for facing up to your fear and overcoming it!!!!!
