Being Brave

Snake-blog-5

Yesterday was filled with so many things pink and lovely, sweet and sparkly, and left this mama with a full heart and a hot mess. It was warm, and it was beautiful. Full Pink Pony Birthday Party post to come.

For now, I'll leave you with a little sneak of the party and a couple of other things it was full of, full on face painting of which my littlest indulged and animals. Brayden was a snake, an excited, hissing snake. And then, came the chance to meet one. That part however, didn't settle quite so well. I was proud of him, no matter how unsettling, how scary it was, he faced it. He may not have touched, he didn't hold, but he faced it.

“The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.”
~Thucydides

The rest of us held the snake. A few with more grace and poise than others.
