Courage

We had a pool membership this summer because Madison loves the water so much.  She started to venture over to the big pool with daddy about half way through the season and loved it.  She had fun watching the big kids go off the diving board.  She even got up there a few times and I would help her go off by lowering her down to Todd.  Well, on the last weekend of the pool, she decided she was ready to give it a try by herself.  She waited her turn, gathered some courage and went off by herself!

Everyone at the pool was so happy for her and cheered.  I think she felt like such a big kid!
