airtwardo 7 #19 February 23, 2013 UPDATE: This may be rather interesting ~ said munchkin has done nothing but talk about Skydiving for a week now! Though legal for him to do at 18 there wasn't ever any real interest so I never pushed it...he asked me a month or so back if I would go with him on his 21st Birthday, A bit of a surprise but sure I said, it'll be fun. He said today he finally 'understands' why jumping is important to me...it's not some 'stupid hobby' like his friends pursue. "Dad it's weird - It's all I can think about!" The kid has been around skydiving since the 1st day he got here...funny it took so long to spark even a try. Anyway...we're going back down to do another tandem, which I guess is a part of an integrated training program. He stopped by this morning to ask 100 questions & grab every piece of skydiving literature he could carry out! I've BTDT ~ I understand. Some years back I wrote a story about this kid & how he really kicks-ass at whatever he puts his mind to! http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1820085#1820085 I've never seen him so motivated, so interested in something...THIS will be interesting! Kid just LOVED the attached pic of his old-man there on the left - back when I was 21! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's put it together how Mom being a CFI and Dad a Skydiving Instructor & jump-pilot at his age now ~ both while in college ~ didn't 'just happen'...He's finally been getting his ass in gear with some positive - productive focus. In the FB pics, that's his adorable 2 year old son in the wagon that he's hugging after the jump, there's another on the way. The kid is smart, has a good job, a GREAT wife...and is finally understanding what we've always said is true ~ work hard at something you love & ANYTHING really IS possible. I'm glad he jumped & liked it, I'll step back and see where it goes but either way - it WILL be interesting! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
