Saturday 13th August, a day with little time between downpours of rain, was filled with a rush to cut the front yard followed by a rush to assemble our new Revolution Glider."What does this bit do Daddy?"
"No idea"
"I'll get my screwdriver and help"
"Nooooooooooooooooo!"
"Is it ready yet Daddy?"
"For the fifth time - not yet sweetpea"
"Can we ride to Loaningdale for hot chocs?"
"What a good idea"
Anyway, in spite of all the "help" I received whilst assembling the bike I succeeded in completing the task before the next downpour. However Eddy, being but 4 years old, could not contain herself any longer and insisted on a test drive around the sub division. So off we went at exactly the same time as the heavens opened. Well, it didn't take long for the weeping and wailing to commence and we returned to the house 2 minutes later and very much damper than we had set off. I do not think my daughter has an outdoors type personality.
Later, after returning from Loaningdale (pictures can be seen here) Little Ted got to try out the Glider. He is a tad small for it right now but he held on tightly and enjoyed a trip around our street whilst Jenna kept an eye on his progress.
