I took Bailey to the park yesterday to enjoy this great spring-like weather we have been having. We don\u2019t normally go to this park so it was a change from our usual outing. We were the only two at the playground for a few minutes before two other mothers arrived separately. One had two young children, the other had what looked to be a three-year old boy. <\/p>\n

The playground at this park has a slide with vertical 8 foot ladder. I had been helping Bailey climb it before the other kids got there. And by help, I mean spotting her to make sure she didn\u2019t fall while telling her she didn\u2019t need my help. She got the hang of it quickly before deciding she would rather play on some of the other equipment. <\/p>\n

A few minutes later the three-year old boy started climbing the ladder. He got about halfway up and then got scared. His mom encouraged him to keep going but she had to lift him off. Bailey watched what happened then decided it was time climb it herself. She ran past the boy and climbed straight up the ladder.<\/p>\n

The mother pointed to her and said, \u201cSee? She isn\u2019t afraid.\u201d Yep, she made me proud. These two pictures were from her next trip up the ladder. Pretty good for a being just past two. <\/p>\n
