When you become a mom life becomes scary!
I heard it best put once that now your heart is walking around outside your body and you have no control over it! This is very true!
What they don't tell you is that sometimes you must do scary things that you normally wouldn't do in order to not instill fear in your child.
Who would think that could happen at Boo at the Zoo...., but it did.
I rode a ferris wheel! For many this may not seem scary but I have managed for 30 years now not to get on one. I even talked Emma out of it at the fair....however there was a much smaller one at Boo at the Zoo and My Little Bo Peep wanted to ride it! I thought I was in the clear because my sweet husband and Prince Charming was going to ride with Emma and I would remain safely on the ground! However as we were waiting for them to ride some sweet gentleman handed us 7 tickets. Now I had NO excuse! Ryan, Bo Peep and I boarded the ride. We proceeded to go to the very top while my Good friend Jenn and her daughter boarded. On the way up I could hear lots of creaking and squeaking. I really think you could describe what I had as a panic Attack. All I could think is here I have agreed to ride this thing, it is not properly put together and it is going to break and I have endangered my whole families life! As I was telling Ryan I NEEDED to get off Ryan calmly explained that the reason we were stopped at the top was so they could load Jenn and Belle and we would not be stuck there anymore I calmed down a little. As we went around the bottom not only am I still a little panicked but there is a bag of tools you can clearly see at the bottom where we boarded. Not a good sign for a crazy panicked person! I can now say I have ridden a ferris wheel and don't care to ever again. Miss Emma will have to depend on her brave daddy for that!
