Mckayla loves taking her bath/shower but hates getting dressed. Recently, she’s also refusing to get her hair dried with blow dryer. Every night, she screamed and cried while Ted bargained with her. She preferred my blow dryer because she gets to play with my makeup brush and scale while getting her hair dried. But last few days has gotten worse and she just started screaming and crying the moment the dryer is turned on. Ted got really mad at her last night and walked away while Mckayla came running to me crying. I asked her what happened. She said, “KK not listening and BaBa is sad”. Then she told me she was bad and didn’t want to dry her hair. I asked what is she going to do when BaBa is upset. She said, “sorry”. I told her to apologize to Ted. She looked at me and said no. Then, she said “BaBa is crying because he’s sad”. So I told her she needs to apologize so BaBa’s not sad. Finally, she ran to the kitchen to look for Ted. They came back together with Mckayla’s arm wrapped around Ted’s neck and head resting on his shoulder like a sweet little girl again. This morning, she was looking for Ted. I told her that he has gone to work. Then, she said, “BaBa is sad because KK was bad”. I asked her why KK was bad. She said she didn’t dry her hair. Later, when Nanny showed up, she told Nanny, “KK take bubble bath, then dry her hair”. I was quite surprised that she knew the word “then” in Chinese. So, we’ll see how she does tonight after her bath.
