Never Give up !!

Ariv is growing at an amazing speed. It somehow amazes me how soon they can learn stuff and find out a work around for things they want to do but are not allowed. We have rearranged our living/family room to accommodate Ariv's toys and to provide him lot of crawling space. The couches are in 1 line along the wall and same is the case of my favourite Coffee table. Our coffee table is made of glass , not a piece of anything else but glass which makes it look beautiful, heavy and expensive. I don't know , what we were thinking when we bought some expensive pieces of furniture in our then-new-home.
But anyway, coming back to Ariv, I put my two long lovely glass vases which were kept on floor beside fire place on the cofee table , so that Ariv could not reach to it and break it... But, I guess ,something that is denied is always fascinating. He always used to come to the table , stand up and tried to touch the vase by extending his hands. Yesterday, I put some other stuff on the table, so that he could not reach it. He tried with all his strength to reach it, by extending his lil arms. I thought, he might give up after couple tries, but kids dont know what giving up is all about. Its only us adult who think and settle, if we cant get somethign we want. We give UP !!

So Ariv, after couple tries, didnt want to give up . Instead, he tried to climb up the table to get what he wanted. I was furious as well as amused by his this new act. So, I chuckeled to myself and thought it a good story to tell my hubby and family.
