start, you must

Jake and I are still learning things about each other. What a relief. How exciting. And how honestly terrifying too- that we are married and have made a baby together, yet there are still surprising tidbits and intricate honesty to be unearthed. 

My physical goal for 2015 is to be able to do a handstand. I found a tutorial and have started practicing. We have a perfect portion of kitchen cabinet for stabilizing myself. My inability isn't linked so much to a lack of strength, as to a fear of being upside down and also of toppling over and hurting myself. I'm working on it. I'm gonna do it!

So, here's the discovery: Jake can handstand! He could even, at one point, walk on his hands. He would use this skill for pranks and general tomfoolery in college. My Jake? Can handstand? Who knew! I've been living with my dream handstand teacher for years without realizing it.
