Wow, Other people’s kids are great

Team Photos day, originally uploaded by Limorama.

So, you may or may not know this, but I help coach a kids climbing team. These are my kids. I really love them a lot. They all work super hard, are very motivated, and on top of all that well balanced.

Hanging out with them teaches me things every day. Yes, I am their coach and I do help them with climbing things, but the simplistic nature of how they look at things sometimes really is uplifting to me sometimes.

It’s like one of my girls said once, “In rock climbing, you can almost die, but if you don’t it’s totally a good idea to try it again.” I like that philosophy a lot. It’s all about being fearless. I wish everyone had that kind of fortitude.

So really this is just a shout out to my kids. Well, to other people’s kids who I happen to coach I guess. Thanks guys, thanks for showing me some stuff, and reminding me of things.
