Happy Mothers Day !!

What could be better than to have a cute little 6 year old come and give you a hug and card and tell you "Happy Mother's Day".
Everything went along as a normal Sunday. After church I did make everyone stop and smile for a picture. (Say Cheese!). I must say my kids are so cute and adorable!!!!!!!!!!! We went to visit Brian's Mom and Step Mom on Saturday so there was just my mom on Sunday. And since it was a very nice day we thought we would go for our 1st family bike ride for the summer. This would be Brooklyn and Jordan's first attempt at riding all the way to Grandmas house. Which is about 4 1/2 miles. Jordan taught himself to ride about a month ago and he is only 3. He thought it was a great ride. For our efforts On the way home the older kids wanted to ride through some water that had flooded the bike trail that goes under the road. Brian convinced Jordan that he wanted to do this also. The water was about a foot deep and cold. Brooklyn and I crossed the road and came to the other side to watch. The older kids were happy and thought that going through the water was great. Jordan stopped and the edge of the water (on the other side) hesitating his descent into the water. Brian road back to encourage him. Once he started going across I was worried that he would stop and than tip over in the water bringing on tears and one cold little 3 year old. So I kept telling him to peddle , peddle , peddle...etc. Well, he made it and declared that he didn't like it and didn't want to do it again. After arriving home, Brooklyn laid down on the couch and was asleep with in 15 minutes. I laid down with Jordan and he was out quicker than I could get to comfortable.

  3. Look at you, blogging lady! It looks great. It sounds like you guys had a fun Mother's Day. You are all biking addicts! Next time we come up to play, we will need to bring our bikes for sure. Can you teach my kids to ride without training wheels too?
