Zach man really has NO fear. It is crazy!Maybe it is because I do not coddle my kids, or mayube it is because he has a big brother that he wants to be just like, or maybe it is just because he is awesome.....odds are it is a mix of all three. But I have never been around a 2 yr old that will do as much as he does.
Today I took the boys swimming. After SUFFERING all day in our house, with the ac off, sweating like pigs, I thought we could all use a dip in the pool. And since Alex can swim by himself he is obsessed with the water slides. So Zach and I went over to them to watch Alex. Mind you the pool is only 4 ft deep by the slides, but that is a foot taller than Zach. So as Alex went down the slide Zach jumped off the side. ANd I do not mean jumped and I caught him so he barely got wet. No not my kid! My kid likes to jump in, go under the water and then try to kick his legs to get back up. Now of course I catch him, because well he is 2 and can not swim, but I do not grab him until he is under water, and he LOVES it!He was running and jumping over and over and over again. At one point I turned to look at Alex and Got hit in the head by my 2 yr old who figured he did not need to be caught. ANd even though most kids would freak out he laughed and said that was great!
Moral of the story he has no fear! And that scares the hell out of me!
