Jumping

Stanley has been trying to jump for about 2 months now. He was getting one foot off of the ground for a while, but he just couldn't get both feet off of the ground. This weekend, he must have realized that practice makes perfect. At the market, he saw some girls jumping (you can see them in the first video below). Stanley went over to Steve and started jumping, and jumping, and jumping. It was about 2 hours of constant jumps.

At the end, he could jump. He gets both the feet off the ground and can even move forward sometimes. He is still doing it quite often and is very proud of himself. The last video shows some of his success.
Video 1: Decided that he will learn to jump.
Video2: still practicing. Steve and my arms were tired of giving him some balance.
Video 3: Success!

  1. Darling and fun videos of the learning process. Is it basketball or track that we will be watching when he is in high school? The laugh that concludes the jump is almost as precious as the great leap.
