The ritual

I don't know how it is for adults (probably the same, though we're not aware of it), but kid's life includes lots of rituals, doesn't it?!

I could name hundreds of them for Loup!

One I really like is when I take him to the kindergarten. He usually fights to not go there (sigh, even after, what... 8 months there!)

But the ritual of the "cats" helps a lot.
On our way to the kindergarten, we walk in front of a plumber's shop who gets 2 lovely cat. Loup spend a couple of minutes saluting them, presenting his sheep to them, etc. And they seem to like it :)



Rituals are helpful, yup. At the same time when you're in a rush, it makes things complicate, huh!
