Byron Climbing!

When we were in Baltimore for Byron's therapy, one of the things I noticed was his insecurity and hesitancy around climbing equipment.  At our local mall, a new climbing, jumping play space just opened.


Tonight was our fourth visit.  It's five dollars an hour with an additional dollar for an extra hour.  Fantastic bargain!  The first time we visited, I had to enter each of the climbing spaces with Byron and help him on each piece of equipment.  The second and third times he got a bit better at each slide/jump. His dad was with us on the third visit and with Bob's encouragement he mastered a slide that he could not even get half way up the time before before.  Well tonight, on his own, he decided to climb the biggest, most scary slide in the whole place;  it's even hard for me.  Here he is!




Here's the much littler slide that he had trouble with the first couple of times.  He's great now!
