NSV - Being a fun mom is awesome! (with pics)

We've been to lots of amusement parks and attractions with our kids and up until now, I've sat back and let my husband be the fun guy on the rides and things.  I've always been worried about being able to get in/out of things and worried about people looking at me.  This year, with more than 50lbs gone, I finally felt like I could be the fun one.  My kids were beyond excited when I decided to ride the elephant at the Lion Safari last weekend. 
They couldn't believe it - and neither could I!!!  Would never have done this 3 months ago! :)




 

This is awesome!  Not only an NSV for you, but a very sweet and special memory for the rest of your family.  Can't get any better than this in my opinion.  Congratulations.  Claire

WTG!  Glad to see you have learned to "just do it". Kids grow up way too fast and you miss out on too much when you carry the guilt of excess weight.  Surgery was a true blessing, giving us all back our lives!

Kerry good for you. My son called me a "weird" mom the other day at the playground because I was running around and playing on the equipment and the zipper with him.
