Chesley and Kaden have really enjoyed playing outside lately. We had a lot of rain and now its very cold, but the boys have been out despite the weather.

On Tuesday we had unseasonably warm weather. It got all the way up to the mid 50s. Though there was still a cool breeze, we decided to take advantage of it. Chesley, Kaden, and I pulled out our bikes and dried off the seats to go on our first ride of the year!
Has anyone else ventured out of hibernation on these random warm days we’ve had?
I went out for a 4 mile bike ride today with Chesley and Kaden. I was all set with helmets, water, and snacks. We got 2 miles away when we started heading back home. It had been a good trip so far…
Then I tried to change gears so I could peddle easier up a hill when my chain slipped and got stuck. I decided to sacrifice my clean hands to try to fix the chain but it was wedged tight and wouldn’t budge. An older man stopped on the side of the road to try to help me. He even pulled out some gloves and a screw driver to give the chain a good pull. But even he couldn’t seem to move it.
So Chesley rode his bike the 2 miles back while I walked quickly beside him, pushing my bike. I was glad when we finally made it home. I guess I can’t complain, we got some fresh air and lots of exercise! Right?
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike. I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride it where I like…
Chesley is riding his bike without training wheels now!! He picked it up really quick. We are all surprised with how well he is doing and so proud of him. Kaden loves riding his bike too but he has yet to master the skill of pedaling. I’m sure he’ll have it figured out before the summer is through.
