I love you too much to make you endure what I don't want to do anyway...

During our visit to Sedona, one of the "must-do" activities was to hike about the many beautiful natural land formations all around us.  I was tentative about the kids' readiness for hiking, but still felt it essential while we were amidst such inviting scenery (plus, I paid for a parking pass and, being a Wu, wanted to make the most of what we paid for!)... so I scheduled us to go on two (short) hikes per day.  The kids were already "tired" from the first hike, so when they discovered we were planning for a second, they were a bit alarmed.  They turned to their mother to see if what I planned was really happening, and she said yes.

Jadon decided to throw in a last ditch effort: "Aww, Mom, don't you still have that headache?"

(Epilogue: we never got to those second hikes of each day.)
