Doing Something for the First Time

This week, I got to do something that I have never done before.  I road on a motorcycle!

It was really amazing.

I've never done that before and it really inspired me.  I want one when I grow up.

As a kid, I get to do things for the first time a lot.  That's how I grow.

This week, do something that you have never done before.  Maybe you'll grow a little.  Maybe you'll discover a new passion.  Just get out there and do it.

You'll be glad you did.

Love,
Evan

Evan Takes a Risk

This week we went to a new park.  It had an amazing play area.  It had 3 levels and was 30 feet high.

I was a little scared at first, but I did it anyway.

When I am scared, I look at where I am going. I focus on what I am doing now.  I recognize the fun I am having.

When I do that, I am no longer scared.

This week, if there is something that scares you, look at where you are going, focus on the now, and recognize the fun you are having.

You'll be glad you did.

Love,
Evan

Raining Squirrels

Last year, several little squirrels fell from one of our trees.

They were super cute and had a lot of energy. (Click on the picture to get a better look).

We found a woman who helps squirrels way out in Thousand Oaks to take them .  

In a few months, we got them back released them back in our yard.  We even got a few extras.

Now we get to have fun watching them eat the peanuts we leave them every morning.

It feels great to save a life.

This week, look for someone or something that needs a little help and help them.  

You'll be glad you did, and they will, too.

Love,
Evan

Dressing Up

I love playing dress up.

The cool thing about dress up is that I get to imagine being a superhero, a princess, a cowgirl, a fairy, or whatever I want to be.

What do you want to be?

This week, dress how you want to be.  You'll have so much fun and be glad you did. (Click on the picture to get a better look).
