We went to Newport News Park with my parents last monday. Colin is a great hiker and couldve hiked for hours. Joel - not so much. Norah got into it when she got her own walking stick but she walked through some mud puddles and ended up walking maybe a mile barefoot after her shoes got wet. She didnt want her wet shoes on. Tough feet on my little girl.
The funniest part was at the end the trail split two ways - one way led back to the car and the other was a several mile hike through the swamp. Colin wanted to take the swamp trail. Joel was done at that point. So Grandpa told Colin that they would come back and hike the swamp trail together another day. Joel then exclaimed "yeah when I'm not with you!!!" haha oh Joel. Sometimes its frustrating to motivate him to do something but most of the time I admire that he will never let anyone get him to do something he doesnt want to do.
