I liked climbing things when I was a baby. My mother remembers and has told me most of those 　36 moments like this one. When I was one and a half years old, we lived in our first house in Rue St-Louis. On a hot summer day, my father intended to 37 the roof of our old house. In order to climb up there, he 38 a ladder front of the house.

In my town, 　39 could walk outside because the streets were 40 . I was outside watching my father climb on that strange thing. I was curious about why my father disappear at last. So I decided to go up it to 41 why it was impossible to see my father after he reached the 42 of that thing. At 1.5 years old, still a baby wearing pampers, I climbed that ladder to the roof top and started walking 43 . My father did not notice that-he was on the other side occupied with his repairs. It happened that a nice lady in our 44 passed by and 　45 me. The nice lady came to my house and 　46 my mother of it, who was fearful and 47 ran outside to speak with me.

She really thought I would just 48 that roof, for I was just a baby 49 . She asked me to sit down and stop moving in a 50 way you speak to your babies when they are cuts. 　51 , I threw myself flat on the 　52 and waited.

My mother climbed the ladder to 53 me up and there I was enjoying the view laughing at my mother’s shocked face. 　54 the saying goes, “He who knows nothing 55 nothing.”

My wife and I moved into our home two years ago．We had a yard with a lot of 36 ．Very of-ton when W6 have flowers，Denise or I would plant some between the rocks，just to add some 37 to the area．

Last summer，I found a tiny little 38 in the yard that I could not immediately identify．I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise said she didn’t either．We decided to let it 39 growing until we could find out what it was．

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the 40 plant，it appeared to be a sunflower. I decided to 41 the weeds around it．As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds，I no-ticed something 42 .The sunflower had not 43 where I saw it begin．It actually had begun under a big 44 and grown under and around it to reach the 45 ．

That’s when I 46 that if a tiny little sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its 47 of developing，we too have the ability of doing the same thing．If we 48 ourselves like that little sunflower, We can reach where we 49 to go and get what we need for growth．

We need to believe in ourselves knowing We have the 50 to achieve our goats．Like the 51 ，it knew it had the ability to get over the rocks because it had 52 in itself that it would succeed．Stand tall like the sunflower and be 53 who and what We are，then the environment will begin 54 us. We will find a way to go under or 55 any “rocks” in order to reach our goals．
