One year old Sloan Henderson is the most adorable thing to happen to snowboarding since Jake Burton was young and single.
Through my own experiences raising little skiers, I've come to believe that alpine sports are a really great way for parents to spend thousands of dollars to yell at their kids outside in the cold.
But, oh, this kid -- the way she loves it, the way she smiles, the way she slaps her dad five -- has saved me from my spiraling cynicism.
Hearing her parents cheer her on is pretty great too. It sounds authentically joyful -- not the usual angry parent turned sideline ref stuff.
It's awesome. Watch it. Be happy.
My only question is: do they make Sloan-sized helmets?

I had no idea how infuriating the question “how can I help?” would be when there was a sink full of bottles and an empty fridge. Mom friends to the rescue.
Setting goals allows kids to experience growth socially and emotionally by helping them develop self-regulation skills, gain responsibility and build confidence.
Our family vacations—as cheap and tiring as they have been—have made my kids empathetic, curious, and open-minded world travelers, and this makes me proud.
