I've mentioned before about the climbing wall we recently erected on our playground. The kids love this thing. We have several that conquer the tower everyday. We also have some that ALMOST conquer the tower everyday. And then, we have the group that conquers it daily, but not without help.
One of our tiny (tiny, tiny) little girls was climbing today. She climbs everyday and can almost do it by herself. Today, she learned a new trick. She stuck her scrawny legs through the metal net and hung upside down.
She hung there for several minutes waving at friends and yelling at the teachers to look at her before she decided it was time to get back off for a few minutes.
She grunted, she groaned, and she stretched and moaned for the longest of whiles and yet, had nowhere to go.
Sorry, my mind went all Dr. Suess for a moment.
Anyway, after a while of struggling she yelled for me. "Help! My butt muscles are too weakly to pull me up!" she screamed at me.
Honestly, how many times can you honestly say that you've had that phrase screamed at you?
That's what I thought.
