Potential Rock Climber

Published by figur8 at 4:43 pm under potential, rock climbing

Although it was always the hubby’s and my intention to encourage Gavin into the world of golf, it appears my son takes after Mummy in one respect - he recently demonstrated the makings of a potential rock climber.  From a sitting position on the floor, the pulled himself to standing using no less than crimps.  He has also done what appears to me to be a baby’s equivalent of a boulder problem with a sit start and two slopers.

A son after my own heart.  What can I say?  I’m a proud Mummy.

I wish I had a photo but he took me by surprise both times and I didn’t have a camera handy.
