I called Dan. Would this be okay, did he think? Should I allow it? Beside me, Benny was jumping up and down, insisting that he would be fine - FINE. I waited for him. I watched every car. I followed the line as it went around. There were times I couldn't see him. I fretted and tapped my toe. He rode Apollo's Chariot, Alpengeist, and Griffon all by himself. In between we did Sadie rides and played in the water. He was patient. He was thrilled. He was, he told me, "self-responsible." Remember when Benny was born? This is that same boy, right now today:

Aw! It is so bittersweet! On one hand, you're SO proud of him for being able to do it on his own. On the other, you wonder where the time when went... well, at least I do... Anyway, GO BENNY!! :)
That's one happy face!
It's amazing how fast they grow up, isn't it? My tummy wdoes flip flops every time one of two youngest is on one of the more "thrilling" rides, even when Pa is right beside them! No wonder the gray hairs are multiplying! LOL
