Getting over his fear

[Strive]

Sunday, October 2, 2005.

My seven year old son and I rode the wipeout ride, the fireball(ride that have you hanging upside down), and the Stardust (the ride that stand up ride that spins you really fast.). But the ride that made my son called it quit was the zipper ride at the Virginia State Fair. My son slipped out the seat. He was holding on my his head and arm. Thank God, my son has a big head. I could not get close to him. I was screaming my head off. The ride flipped us over and over again. My son did not cry at all. He told me he did not want to ride anything.

The next morning my son tells me. Mom I want to go on the zipper again. I got to get over my fear.

Wow, I don't know whether to shake him and tell him it almost kill him, but at the same time I am glad he wants to conquer his fear. I just hope I'm ready to go on it with him next time.
