Benjamin looks to Daddy for Advice...

As previously mentioned, Benjamin did not like the water toy one little bit. He cried and whined when the water hit him. So, what does any boy do when he loses his courage. He sits down for a talk with Dad.

After some encouraging words and some advice on the best way to hit Momma with the water, Ben was ready to face his fears.

As a parent, there is nothing more exciting than watching your child face a fear and overcome it. What a truly brave boy Ben was today. At one point, both boys were enjoying the water. I guess I will always remember Memorial Day 2008 as the day Zachary took the lead and Benjamin followed with his amazing Daddy at his side. I am so blessed to have three such amazing men in my life.
