I had to pull out my loyal little digital camera that Jared gave me (did I ever say THANK YOU!!! Jared?) and document Spring In Minneapolis.
Here Enoch has come to the door and said, "Put these in you hair mom." (I really wish I could convey the gravelly tone he has.)
So I obliged him.
Then I saddled up my trusty ride with it's NEW seat, hand grips, and water bottle holder (Thank you Stephanie! aka. Sister Bro-a-garrrd). Check her out at http://womenwhoride.typepad.com/stephanie/
And put the boys in the trailer for a trip to the library and then a ride around blooming Minneapolis.
All seemed well on our journey until I heard the strangest grating noise behind me. I pulled to the left thinking, "Oh dangit! A wheel just fell off of the bike trailer!"
I stopped, looked behind me and noticed that while both wheels were still attached to the trailer, it was rolling! Enoch and Calvin pulled up on my right riding solo.
Whoops! In the three or four years pulling kids behind me I have forgotten bike locks, helmets, water, snacks, directions, you name it... But this is the first time I have forgotten to attach the kids! Enoch thought it was hilarious and after I got over the shock and "what-if" scenarios in my head, so do I. All-in-all nothing but a trustworthy screw and my momma pride is worse for the wear...
We shall dub thee "Old Faithful!"

Yeah for you, we need to get a trailer, the boys would LOVE it!! Especially with all the riding Jared does. You should have someone take a pic of you on your bike in all your get up so everyone can see how beautiful you look.
Luv it. Thanks for the laugh. Last week as I dropped off Ronny at school I pulled away as he was trying to close the door. I saw him get out and thought ok lets go. I was sure everyone saw me and thought what a bad mom I was.
Those boys look so much alike they are so cute
