Fun at the Park

 When Brock started climbing the park structures very early on in his toddler years. Not just those little stairs the have leading up to the slides. I'm talking climbing up the slides,  up the twisted ladders and even up the "spider web" at least that is what I call it! Nicholas has always veered away from too much "adventure", but today I guess he felt big enough. He climbed the rock wall, the slides, the curved and twisted ladders and although  I was there {just in case} he wouldn't allow me to help.  I guess he's not so little anymore.

Brock met him at the bottom of a few slides and would always tell him: "I so proud of you Nick!"
 He was such a proud , happy attentive, and good big brother today at the park. {at home not so much} holding Nicholas hand all the way to the play structure, and encouraging to keep going on even the tough ladders.
It's days like this that makes me forget about those crazy times at home when they yell, scream, hit and fight each other. {BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!}
Whenever we go to the park, we are they for at least  a few hours. today we were there for 3. as my boys ran around, climbed, swung, build wood chip cakes and banged sticks on metal posts, 25 other families came and went. Either I have 2 very active boys, or those other families just don't know what they are missing!
