Slide Phobia

 Sadie Rose is a fearful child.  She just came to our family a little tense.  Remember this and this and this?   Well, slides were just one more fear that needed conquering.  We started small, with baby slides.  Go, Sadie, Go!
 Decide that you want it 
more than you are afraid of it.  
~Bill Cosby


 Panic at the thought of 
doing a thing 
is a challenge to do it.  
~Henry S. Haskins
Avoiding danger is no safer 
in the long run than 
outright exposure. 
The fearful are caught 
as often as the bold.
~Helen Keller

 
Fear has a large shadow, 
but he himself is small. 
 ~Ruth Gendler

 
 To conquer fear 
is the beginning of wisdom.  
~Bertrand Russell

WAY TO GO, BRAVE GIRL!

I was terrified of slides when I was little, then when I got a little older, I was terrified of roller coasters, then when I got even older, I was terrified of driving. Just some more fun things to look forward to... ;)
