Fear and Confidence

Let’s talk about Aquaboggin a little shall we? We’ve been quite a few times now since it has opened and Alec has gone from not wanting to go anywhere but the wave pool to actually going down the real slides. Woah! This is big for him. He’s been so scared since the waterslide incident of a few years ago. It makes heart burst to think about how much confidence he has gained in just a matter of weeks. I hope he is as proud of himself as I am of him!

A recap of a couple of the visit. (4th of July)

This sounds crazy but he was happy to play on the mushroom before he would even go down this kiddie slide. He hated it until a few days ago.

And a few days later he went down the big slides. But of course I don’t have any pictures of that. But I do have pictures of him having fun!

We gain strength, and courage and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face…we must do that which we think we cannot.  ~Eleanor Roosevelt
