Bubbles, Bubbles, Forget your Troubles

Benji was upset the other night and we didn’t know why. He was feed, changed and rested, and sitting in a room full of his favorite toys. Still, he was upset and inconsolable. Lately, both boys have begun suffering separation anxiety to such an extent that mommy and daddy can’t leave the room for even a minute to go to the bathroom without screams of twin sadness. But, on this occasion both of us were in the room with him, and still he was unhappy. In an effort to capture his attention and change his mood, Sandy started blowing soap bubbles. Anytime something new is introduced into the boy’s environment, they will immediately investigate it with curiosity. The bubbles did the trick and the difficulty was forgotten.
