Ben is proving me right about easing their reaction to loud noises. I gave him a calming tablet around 6:30 PM on Saturday, to get through the lake association's fireworks that night. But of course there were fireworks Sunday night and last night (the actual 4th) - as long as he was indoors, he was fairly relaxed and happy even without any calming agent. Outdoors was still pretty scary, in his opinion - he was too tense to potty with fireworks being shot all around us. That's fine - I can deal with that.
Of course it DOES help that Jimmy, now 8 yrs old, is non-reactive to fireworks, thunder, etc. Ben has a good role model, too.
