One of my favorite books growing up was Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson Rawls. Who would have guessed I would have an event in my backyard one day that could be titled the same? Elizabeth's 3 older boys came over for the morning. After eating pancakes, watching Peter Pan and playing at Congress School, we played around in the backyard. Jadon frequently is bored at my house because our toys are too babyish for his liking, but he never seems to run out of ways to make them more enjoyable for himself. On this particular day he decided to play around in the Little Tikes car. I ran inside for something real quick and came out to find him riding it down the slide.
The protector in me told him this was not the safest thing to do, but the adventurer in me said "well, you have to do it one more time so I can get a picture of you doing it!" Of course he conned me into doing a few more times, but no injuries resulted (yet, wait until my next blog entry).
Of course Olivia wanted to try it too, but was fine when she was told no.
