4.9.21 - Kid snippets: Calvin needs his eyes dried

When I wash the kids' hair, I tell them to look at the ceiling so the water runs down the back of their heads. Clara is good at it. Jane is mostly good at it but not always. If she looks down and gets water in her face, she asks for a towel. I hand her a towel and she dabs the water out of her eyes and she is fine.

Calvin has witnessed this so many times now, that whenever I pour water down the back of Jane's head, Calvin urgently requests that I dab his face with the towel. This seems to genuinely comfort him even though no water has touched his head.
