Small Successes

FaithButton
The vacationing version........

1.  Climbed a 100 ft fire tower at a tourist site because my kids and a nephew really wanted to and they needed an adult.  Then did it again since only 4 people are allowed on the tower at a time.  (I really hate heights, I don't even go on the roof of our rambler.)

2.  Swam in frigid lake water so my dd would have someone to play with in the water when all the other older kids were canoeing and stuff.  I actually enjoyed it.  I'm glad she convinced me.

3.  Attempted water skiing.  Yes, attempting it was a success :)

Kuddos on your adventurous week! I would never survive #3. The mental image is just frightening.

Great job for stepping outside your comfort zone and trying something new.

I'm scared of heights, too. Great job being brave so that your kids could have an adventure, I'm not sure I would have been able to do the same.

Those are some brave successes. I don't think I would have willingly done numbers 1 and 2.
