Higher and Higher...

You are getting to be a pretty good little climber, Ethan. It is your second favorite thing to do after ripping all of the items of the small shelf in this picture:

You are fairly careful when you are climbing or perching on something unstable. If it is solid, you bounce all over it (and sometimes off of it). If it seems a little off balance - you move more deliberately...
Once you get up on something - it is a never ending challenge to see if you can get higher or reach something you are not supposed to...
Sometimes I find myself just watching you to see if you can make it instead of pulling you down to safety. I am always amazed when you make it up and down all by yourself...and you always look so proud... This is you telling me all about your trip up the chair and looking out the window - aren't you clever.
