I really need to use my promises sparingly. I take them far too seriously to use them like I do. Today, to get Little Brother #1 to do a back dive off the diving board, I agreed to promise that if he did it, I would try the trick he had just accomplished. What was that, you ask? Well, that was a gainer. For anyone who doesn't know, that's when you jump frontwards but do a backflip. He even told me that I didn't have to do it after he did the back dive, but I had promised, so I tried. I made it a quarter of the way around, just enough to do the most beautiful back flop anyone could ask for. My skin is still all tingly, and I did it at least a half hour ago, if not longer.
