Rock climbing
While Micah was at a friend's birthday in West LA, I decided to take Noah rock climbing. Noah's Harabujee climbed mountains as a young man in Korea, so I know it's somewhere in him. It was really amazing to see him persevere throughout the session. In the beginning, he was very hesitant and he could barely get up the wall. But after taking a few breaths and composing himself he got up a little farther each time. I told him that it wasn't about getting to the top, but about surpassing his last stopping point. I think this helped him because each time he passed his previous stoppage point, he was excited and motivated to continue. By the end of the session, Noah had scaled three walls and reached the top of each one. Proud parent moment. Will he want to take more classes???
