Playground Hot Stuff



Part of getting big is tackling those obstacles that used to feel too scary, too big, too daunting.  This giant fireman's pole used to be unthinkable for Peter.  He'd look at it longingly, perhaps even grab on, but then would hop back on the platform and run off.  Now, with a sudden burst of confidence and capability, he was ready to tackle it, no problem at all.  I love it so much when my kids feel brave and are ready for a challenge.  When you see it all click, and those previously impossible tasks suddenly are in their reach.
