Annika amazes me with her seemingly fearless approach to life. Last week she and Oskar did a rock climbing camp and she easily conquered that challenge. She had no trouble reaching the top of any of the routes they did. Oskar said, "Mom, she's younger than me and better than me!" (I admire him too for the way he wants the best for everyone around him. He's a very selfless person.)
Yesterday Annika went down the waterslide at the pool again and this time had absolutely no problems. I encouraged both of them to try the covered waterslide and they did. Oskar loved it. Annika was not as sold but she still tried it several times.
Speaking of Oskar, yesterday we were walking out of a building and Kardynn pitched a fit for some reason or another. (Who knows why?) I started walking away (making sure she was safe from cars, of course). But Oskar was so upset. "Mom, she can't get up. She needs you to pick her up." Twice he tried to go pick her up himself but of course she shooed him away because she was having a tantrum. He's an amazing kid. I went back and picked her up. Not because SHE was demanding it but because HE wanted it.
