Shea didn’t want to go to Santa Cruz this weekend because the car I rented was too fast.
\nI sat her down and said, “Baby, I don’t want you to ever miss a thing because you were too scared. I promise I will not make you ride anything and I will sit there with you while your sisters go on stuff. Just try.”<\/p>\n

She did try.\u00a0 She is afraid of things that move too fast or up too high.\u00a0 She will fist fight with\u00a0 a bear, but won’t get on a step ladder.\u00a0 She went on the sky coaster that goes over the whole boardwalk. THIS IS HUGE for her! HUGE!
\nThen Alyx convinced her to go on the ferris wheel!\u00a0 Up high and moving fast.\u00a0 She did GREAT.<\/p>\n

When it was over she said, “See mom, I didn’t miss anything I didn’t want to miss.” And she thanked me.<\/p>\n

I want to believe I am being a good role model for my kids, even though I am taking it to the extreme with skydiving, and I think today proved that I might actually be on the right path.<\/p>\n

My baby girl went on a ‘scary’ ride and lived to tell the story! and I will be hearing about it for MONTHS! :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
