Choosing My Battles
Topic: Ryan

Over the last few weeks or months, Ryan has become very picky about what he wears. He'll only wear a few different things, which is shame because he's got a lot of cute clothes. However, I've decided that what he wears is a battle I'm not going to fight. It's just not worth it to me. As long as he's in clean clothes, I'm happy.

This morning Ryan picked out Nemo PJ's. I tried to convince him to wear something else, but he really was intent on those PJ's. So that's what he's wearing. I figure in the grand scheme of things, no one is going to care what he wore when he was two. And I really don't want to get into a battle of wills that will result in tears and shouting on both sides! So that is why today Ryan is dressed in his Nemo PJ's. (At least he decided on socks that match the PJ's. That's not always the case.)

And after all, who wouldn't want to wear PJ's all day now and then? Wink

Name: "Mary Ann"

Try letting him choose between two or three outfits.  Offer only those outfits and keep the closet door shut on the rest!  Might work.  I remember fighting those battles.  :-)
