one is a crazy toddler yeti
one is an energetic tween grandie
both are natural climbers
can you guess which is which?
“obstacles don’t have to stop you. if you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up.
figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.”
– Michael Jordan
grandie is on the move.
where exactly he will end up is anyone’s guess.
this may or may not end well.
kinder climbs to the top and reaches back down.

“the way I see it, if you climb the wall,
you reach back down and help the next one up.”
-carolyn aronson
unlocked the door
with the secret key
climbed way up high
into the secret tower
with
the kinders
up and up and up
the
spiral staircase
with
stone walls
tiny windows
brave hearts
and
a wondrous view from the top.
—
“a well-ordered life is like climbing a tower;
the view halfway up is better than the view from the base,
and it steadily becomes finer as the horizon expands.”
-william lyon phelps
look at your feet. you are standing in the sky.
when we think of the sky, we tend to look up,
but the sky actually begins at the earth.
