(Last year I pulled the 6-year-old on a trail-a-bike and he pulled the preschooler in a trailer.)<br /><br />Unfortunately our 4-year-old is terrified of being way in the back of the lengthy tandem trail-a-bike and is unwilling to give it a try. So we've backed off and have bought her a little 12-inch bike to work up her 2-wheeler (plus training wheels) confidence. Hopefully by summer we'll be able to get in some family rides... <br /><br />But both girls miss the days when their dad and I would go for long rides while he pulled them both along in a trailer and they got to relax with snacks, water bottles, and audio books on the iPod.Sarahlynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13658866017847046987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3473788350177581335.post-53199921347681697802011-04-17T00:08:23.506-06:002011-04-17T00:08:23.506-06:00Thanks, both of you!
It's been years since ...Thanks, both of you! <br /><br />It's been years since I read "Who has seen the wind" - I don't specifically remember him mentioning riding the bike, but I wouldn't be surprised. A farm kid in the 1930s HAD to have had a bike. I should read it again some time. It would be interesting to see what I get from it now, vs. when I was a teenager. <br /><br />BTW, have I ever mentioned that I have W. O. Mitchell's pancake recipe?antijenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15161869410664395836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3473788350177581335.post-44623039203616664352011-04-16T13:30:06.003-06:002011-04-16T13:30:06.003-06:00Well said, Jennifer!Well said, Jennifer!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3473788350177581335.post-7863511282951851772011-04-15T09:23:38.738-06:002011-04-15T09:23:38.738-06:00I am so excited that Jen is our new coblogger!
Je...I am so excited that Jen is our new coblogger!<br /><br />Jen, the running on sky comment is wonderful - smart boy!! When I first saw the title I immediately thought, "Did W.O. Mitchell talk about riding a bike in Who Has Seen The Wind?" I could not make that up. =)Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979321317873788140noreply@blogger.com
