Summer of Therapy

This summer we are tackling 2 fears: Anna Claire's fear of movie theatres and Lizzie's fear of dogs. Lizzie let us take her picture petting Caroline so I think that's a step toward teaching her all dogs are not like Marshall. Notice we did not picture them with Marshall!
Anna Claire is terrified of movie theatres!!! She calls them "feeders"??? This summer they are showing old kids movies at 10am on Wednesday mornings for $3 so we are there every week. Week 1 was awful! She cried for 45 minutes of "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything." I had to hold her VERY tightly but after 45 minutes she sat up and started eating popcorn and laughed the rest of the way through the movie. So bizarre! Week 2 was MUCH better except I had them both in my lap for 90 minutes -- numb legs!
