I love this story from last year. We were on a hike at Hebb park in late November and went down to the dock to see the river. The kids love to go out on the boat with Grandpa in the Summer time, so jumping into the river for Max is pure joy. One this day, however, his little brain did not know the water in November is not the same temperature as the water in August. Without warning, he jumped right off the dock! Mike and I heard a huge splash followed by a scream! He swam to shore screaming all the way and did not stop until we got his clothes off him. We did not know what to do but to laugh. Everything about Max is so wonderful. He is such a boy but at the same time he loves pottery. When he jumped into the river it was a perfect example of his personality. He did not ask for permission or wait around for the other kids to go. It looked good, so he went. The best part was we got him warm and gave him a bag of chips and he was the king of all wild things! Although having 3 boys can be very loud and messy, it is times like this that make it all worth it.
