Providence Walk

Most weekends the kids join Jay and I on the Providence walk, which is punctuated with a couple of expected encounters.

There is a landscaping wall that runs the length of the Whole Foods, and Teeca loves to scale this wall. The wall begins at the height of a single brick, and continues to build until it reaches over my head. Teeca steps onto the wall at the low point, and wants to continue on until the bitter end, long after she is comfortable jumping off on her own. If we allow her to walk this far, she needs to be pulled down off thewall, which makes her somewhat nervous. As soon as she realizes she has to descend, she thinks better of it and tries to escape higher, up the landscaping, thinking that perhaps the easier route will save her the indignity of not being able to jump down herself.
