Yesterday, for the first time, I sat in the tree stand with my boy and I learned (or was reminded of) a few things in the process…
1. Hunting is kind of boring
2. Tree stands are not very comfortable
3. Climbing up a very tall, skinny ladder is a little scary
4. It is hard, as a mom, to not feel extremely overprotective of my son in that tree stand that is high off the ground
5. Being still and quiet for long periods of time is not easy
6. My son has more courage than I give him credit for
7. It is very gratifying to watch your child doing something they love
8. Children feel very blessed when their parents are willing to actively participate in what they enjoy
9. Our woods are truly beautiful in the fall
10. It is definitely a privilege to be Andrew’s mom
