It's In His Genes

I was watching a video of this orchestral group in Europe who used a kind of "flash mob" approach to performing in public. They did the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony - with a flash mob chorus and everything. There was a great crowd of people gathered to listen, mostly families. What was really funny though was that part way through the event the camera panned over to street lamp which had a little girl shinnying up it. She stayed there the entire time.


That made me think of Pam's kids, who climb anything, at any time, without provocation. So it's no surprise that Henry follows the family traits. Here he is at the top of a ladder. He stayed there for some time, and was not happy about being lifted down. He wasn't trying to find a way down. He was happy to be up there.
It's in his genes.

For anyone who is questioning why Henry was up there without someone next to him, I will just say that a certain Grandpa was "watching" him at the time :) And yes, they all do that. Climb. On. Everything. It is usually how we find them in a crowd.
