I love Seth more than I did yesterday because we went to the park this morning and, despite being a bit afraid of heights and other scary things, he went on the zipwire and would have gone on it again and again. While he was waiting he kept up a constant narrative "I'm not going to be afraid at all and I'm going to hold on tight and everything is going to be fine". And it was!
I love Amelie more than I did yesterday because she has no fear at all - at the park, she climbed up every bit of the obstacle course, smiled all the time and never flinched.
Today was one of the days when this blog is invaluable to me. It's been a day when it was very hard to find anything positive to say as my lovely clever smiley daughter turned into a bit of a kicking screaming monster. Coincidentally we watched The Incredibles with the children this afternoon and she reminded me very much of the baby who explodes into flames and then turns into devil baby near the end. But I'm focussing on the positive, so holding on to her fearlessness and smileliness this morning and feeling much better!
