Never Say Never


Before I had Elizabeth, I would see parents walking around with a harness attached to their child. I was disgusted. It offended me that a parent would attach a leash to their child. I thought is was demeaning. For goodness sakes, a leash is made for a dog....NOT a child!

I always thought...I will NEVER put a leash on my child.

Fast-forward to the present.

Elizabeth is a crazy girl. She runs full-speed ahead and does not slow down. She will not listen to me when I ask her to come. She will not hold my hand. She will not walk if I try to direct her. She goes limp and will not move until she is ready.

So. Today I bought a leash.

I guess I should never say never.
