The Tickle Cure

Tonight I accidentally ticked my son, Xan, and got bonked in the nose. You know that really hurty kind of nose-bonk that makes you feel like you've broken your nose? All because I *barely* touched a tiny piece of his skin with my fingertips. This kid is beyond ticklish!

His twin brother practically begs to be tickled, so maybe he got all the tickle genes or something.

I used to be super ticklish, too, but I trained myself to ignore it. To be unticklish. Maybe it's time to teach him my mad anti-tickle ninja skillz.

1. Tell yourself you're not ticklish at all. 
2. Get all zen about it and breathe deep. Just keep breathing.
3. Don't tense up!
4. If you can't talk your brain out of being tickled, put your hand on your tickler's hand while they're tickling you. I know, sounds weird but it works!
