you are our little daredevil!




You often surprise us with your bravery. Like when we go to Disney World, and you want to ride every single ride, including the roller coasters. And when you jump off the diving board into Uncle Pat's pool. Sam said, and I think he's right, that you like to do things that scare you. I'm super proud of you for tackling your fears at such a young age. And also a little worried about the heart attacks you're going to induce in us throughout your life.

These pictures are from your first time jumping off of a diving board. At first you wanted me to hold you while i jumped. Then you wanted me to stay under the diving board and hold your hand. Then you wanted me or Amber to catch you. Then you just kept jumping, going to the ladder, getting out, and jumping again. You jumped probably 20-30 times. Sometimes you'd count; sometimes you'd sing "Living on a Prayer," and then jump. And after you got dried off, you sat by the pool and watched some big guys jump off and do all kinds of flips and crazy stunts. You'd yell, "That was AWESOME!!" I wonder how long it'll be before you're trying stuff like that....
I love you!
love, mom
