We showed up, not sure what to expect, and both inwardly groaned when the "teacher" opened up the conversation with "How can we describe our Monkey"....pause, smile, laugh....."she's fearless." Um, yeah. We noticed.
The teacher (whom we adore) used that word over and over again, describing how Monkey will leap or engage in some other acrobatic behavior, narrowly make her landing, then turn and smile at her teachers....who are hurtling across the room attempting to prevent this lapse in decorum. Um, yeah, welcome to our world.
We learned several other things. Monkey is the "queen bee" and likes to sit on the rocker and just admire her subjects (I mean classmates). She is fearless. She loves to read books. And she's fearless. Oh, and she speaks Spanish - knows that agua means water. I doubted this until yesterday, when both Dad and I heard Monkey say agua - clear as a bell!
So she's a bilingual EvilKenival. Woot!

I googled fearless toddler to get some "help" on my daredevil 2 1/2 yr old and I came across your blog. I think we have 2 peas in a pod. My little girl starts preschool next week and I am worried sick about her safety as she has NO FEAR. She can climb anything and will put herself in dangerous situations. She loves the thrill and laughs when she completes her "stunts". Any advice ?? These daredevil girls are going to grow up to be great athletes and leaders!! :)
