Laney,
Your first rock-climbing class was yesterday at the Y. I didn't want to seem like one of those weird, hovering moms, so instead of hanging out by the door to the class, I went upstairs to the workout area, hid behind a treadmill and literally hovered over you.
Your dad and I are hoping you fall in love with a sport like this one, because it can be such a confidence-booster. Middle school is so tough, (especially for girls, I think) and if some mean girl in 8th grade teases you for not wearing the right cool outfit, knowing that you can scale a mountain all by yourself might give you the perspective required to tell that girl to kiss your grits.
Climb every mountain,
Ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow,
'Til you find your dream.
-The Sound of Music.
Love,
Mom
