Paddle Boarding & A Little Lesson In Bravery
“You have to be brave
with your life
so that others
can be brave with theirs.”
I can’t tell you how much I love this saying.
For me “others”= my boys.
I want to be that parent that leads by example
&
I think I may be failing a bit in the
“bravery”
department.
I am not sure exactly how it happened that I became a mom
&
managed to stuff my adventureous side away somewhere
but I did.
I got caught up in making sure that everyone else’s
needs were being taken care of that
I forgot some of my own.
Can anyone relate????
So, in the spirit of “bravery” & adventure
I decided to try
paddle boarding.
I have a huge fear
of what lurkes beneath the water
so this was enormous for me.
I have to say, I actually liked it:)!
And what was even better,
my son Shane,
who is 7
thought I was cool.
He even tried it too,
which I thought was even more cool
& quite BRAVE:).
Here we go
My husband-the instructor.
Here I go
A little big for my little guy,
but E for effort.
Jack is anxiously awaiting his turn.
My brave boys.
This is our new chalk board saying for
a while.
Shane read it
&
put an exclaimation point at the end.
I think that is a good way to start summer:).
Happy day everyone
&
thank you for sharing your time today.
