Trees

So Mrs. Stephanie next door has three trees growing in the edge of her yard. They use to be quite small but the boys managed to climb up the few branches that would support them, not far up. Well now those trees are much bigger and the kids can get up much higher! Amelia now scurries up the darn things.
Mrs. Stephanie has always said the kids could climb the trees so that's no problem; I don't even mind the kids climbing, climbing trees are fun. But geez-la-wheez it scares the dickens out of me at the thought of one of them falling out of the tree. Mostly because underneath the tree is a metal bench and concrete curbing around the flower bed, if one of the kids fell it would be a serious injury.
I don't say anything, though, other then be careful and hang on because climbing trees is fun and swaying in the branches can make a kid feel so free.
