National Walk To School Day...

This is going to be a short post but its worth remembering... So this week was National Walk to School Day. You could walk, ride a bike or scooter, or roller skate to school and you would get a treat and a drink when you arrived at the school. If you know Madelyn she doesn't pass on a treat!! Gotta love this girl! So that morning we were all ready for school and decided we were gonna ride bikes to school that morning... Yes, I have a cute cruiser bike with a basket that I ride around the neighborhood! ( I haven't rode it in a while due to my pregnancy and well there was that one incident where I fell off my bike in the school parking lot in front of everyone!!) Well, Mady still has her training wheels and we weren't riding fast enough for Hannah so she rode with some friends and left us! The thing about Mady is she will just stop suddenly and say I have an itch or I got a little scared because I was going too fast well there was a few time I almost ran right into the back of her but I managed to avoid a crash! We were able to get to school safely and Mady was given her fruit roll up and kool-aid drink...

That afternoon I had to ride my bike up to the school and get them and ride home.... Well when school gets out the side walks are pretty crowded and this is what totally made my day! Every time someone was behind us Mady would say "your gonna want to pass us!" Whenever she would say this I would chuckle to myself thinking this girl is so funny! As people would pass us they would look at her bike and notice the training wheels but wouldn't say anything but then this one boy looked at her and said " you still have those things on your bike?" Without any hesitation Mady said "Yep!" and kept on riding... I had to laugh out loud this time.... She doesn't care what ANYONE thinks of her! I love this quality that Madelyn has so much! I wish that I had this! I hope that she will always keep this!

While we were pedaling home I kept thinking to myself how lucky I am to get to stay home with my girls. I wouldn't want to miss out on these moments! I am so fortunate that I have a husband that has the means to allow me to be able to stay home with my girls! I am a very lucky woman!!!
