Title: It Just Can't Get Any Better!!! ---pics----
Post by: DW on August 24, 2009, 09:16:00 PM
Today was a Classic Monday   :(    But when I get Home, My Little SweetHeart, Chloe Beth, asks me as only she can..." Dad do you wanna go outside and Shoot ours Bows?"  She's only 2 1/2 years old.....Talking about making you smile...This Pic is not "staged". She got her bow and Quiver and set her 3-d "Goat" buck target out and let it have it......I've got to be the luckiest Man Alive......   (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CSC_0142.jpg)  (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CSC_0143.jpg)  (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CSC_0146.jpg)  (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CSC_0144.jpg)  (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CSC_0138.jpg)

They grow up quick DW! You will remember things like this forever. It seems like my daughter was that age only yesterday, tomorrow she starts her second year in college ! But I can also tell you that they will always remember things like going to 3D shoots, camping and hunting with their Father that took the time to include them in their outings. Bless you and your childrens time together.

Hey guys. I was at a Boy Scout meeting tonight so I missed this shooting lesson. The bow is an Elk Ridge Pilgrim 10@20" that I won for her at last year's TBOF Fall Rendezvous.  Notice the Barbie Band-aids on her finger?  Friday Night she stuck her hand underneath a rocking chair on a Hardwood floor...It completely tore away the Nail on her middle finger...But she was shooting her bow by Sunday...

Thank you.   This post brought back many great memories of my two girls shooting when they were that young.  Embrace these times, before you know they become teenagers and are too busy to spend some quality time with dad.  I'm not bitter about it though :>)

Time downshifts and punches the gas when the kiddos come along. Yesterday I caught my daughter as she was born, this morning she learned to walk and this evening she is 6 and shot some arrows with daddy tonight. We snuggled. Tomorrow morning she'll ask to be driven, tomorrow afternoon for the keys and tomorrow evening for help with the rent. With any luck and God's grace, she'll be doing just fine two mornings from now and bringing the grandchildren over by noon.    :pray:

My daughter turned one in April.  Looks like I need to have her a bow by next spring.  Thanks, I was wondering how old was old enough.  I'm already planning the pink and purple arrows.  Great stuff!
