What a difference a year makes.

This was Asher in September 2009 at the Minnesota State Fair.

Chris made him go on the big yellow slide, the one that all the 3-year-olds were riding just fine.

He was a little upset about it.  It would be an understatement to say that Asher can be slightly afraid of almost anything.

But just a little over a year later, on the Texas rainbow slide ...

He was happy all the way down.

And so proud of himself for conquering his fear of the big slide.
