New Heights

It may not seem like a big deal, but the most important things are often those that don't seem special to anyone else. This is the "spiderweb" as we call it at a local park. At our last visit (late last Fall), Connor was still scared to climb this and we had to stand with him the whole time and help him climb. He is a cautious kid and doesn't like to do anything until he's confident that he can do it well. Well, we visited this weekend and he scrambled right up to the platform and yelled "Mommy and Daddy I'm not scared anymore!!!" We were so proud of him, but more importantly, he was proud of himself.
