And I totally agree with the poster above me...talk her through it, and tell her you have x amount of time, and then I'll help you. Nope, I got nothin! ;)

I can handle it." What usually works for her is to let her know when we on a time crunch and give her a count. For example, "If your shoes aren't on when I get to 10, I'm going to put them on for you." This usually works. This morning was a painful exception.
