One foot in front of the other

The views were just amazing. We could see the outline of the wide crater that blew up 850,000 years ago. The kids were tired and several times we were on the absolute edge of stopping. I explained that my job as a dad is to push the kids to learn what their limits are.

And then a magic moment I will never forget:

Franklin (upset and tired): Dad - I don't know what my limit is!

Me: I don't either honey. The question is, are you there yet?

Franklin (resignedly): No...

And we walked on. To pass the time I found a Lord of the Rings Trivia website. We did OK - Franklin did the best of us I would say.Okumaya devam et
