Laurel is so proud of herself when she reaches the top! It delights her to squeal and explore her new found territory, and it's quite a disappointment when a family member closes in and brings her back down. Even her many tumbles have not deterred her from future adventures. Just the other night we had decided her nick name should be "energizer bunny". She just keeps going and going and going......
