Safety First

Ty was in the bathtub whooping it up with all the water sloshing back and forth. I was getting concerned that he was about to bang his head on the water faucet.

Me: "Ty, be careful. You are going to hit your head on that spout."

Ty: "I won't" and keeps his momentum going as the watery inertia builds.

Me: "STOP! You are going to hurt yourself. One time Uncle Ken bang his head on one. Cracked it right open and their was blood everywhere. He had to go and get stitches at the hospital. You don't want that."

Ty looked at me, grabbed the pink cup and put it on the faucet. Then preceded very lightly touch his head to the now protected faucet as to demonstrate the new safety measures in place.

"See??!??" he said and continued with his watery business.

I said nothing after that.
