The prairie winds were blowing but since it was the first warm (sort of) day since last September, the kids still wanted to go out to play. Afraid to blow away, the girls came in a short while after and left our 7 year old out by himself. Soon I noticed from the kitchen window that his bike was in my garden. Puzzled by this, because there is (was) a fence around my garden, I went outside to investigate.
"Sorry mom, sorry!" He apologetically cries as I walked up to survey the damage. "I didn't think it would break!"
As I looked upon one of my fence posts which snapped in two, I (not so calmly) asked: "What made you think it wouldn't break?"
"It didn't break the first time I ran into it!"
Of course! How foolish of me to ask. It turns out that using a garden fence to stop you whilst windsurfing on your bike can break a pole and consequently the fence!
Children are creatures that can make us laugh and lift our spirits even in gloomy, dismal situations. In times when we can’t remember what it was like to go “potty” without an entourage, this blog will remind us how precious and amusing these munchkins can be. Children are a blessing!
