Don't just watch our kids play, join them instead.
I remember climbing up the spider web with my friends back in secondary school. It was one of the things we would do when we stayed over at a chalet. Each of us would then find a spot to lie and rest as we tried to spot shooting stars in the night sky. Yup, those were the days.
The kids and I stumbled upon this rope structure yesterday and of course, they were all excited to climb up! It wasn't that easy to scale because it was tall and the gaps were far, and even the girls were a little scared to get to the top, not to mention the boy who had trouble even getting up. Lol.
I wanted him to know that he could do it too so I held his hand and we climbed up step by step. At times, he couldn't reach and I had to haul him or support his weight but with each step, he gained more confidence and determination. Eventually, we reached the midway 'seat' where he felt so proud and happy to sit down and didn't wanna leave. Haha.
If not for the fact that we were barefooted - the ropes can get painful after a while - because we didn't wear covered shoes and that we were surrounded by the haze, I think we would have all reached the top. Well, that means that's always a next time for us to try again, right? Reminding myself to feel young at heart and always join in the fun with my little ones.
Enjoy the last day of the holidays to the max, people! Happy Sunday!
