"Ruby, are you sure you want to wear a dress for a bike ride?"
" Yes, mommy. All princesses wear dresses when they go for bike rides."
I guess I can't argue with that.
This is our family of five's first bike ride together!
We road down to the blue stair sculpture which is probably less then half a mile away. She did really well. She was stopping her bike, waving and ringing her bell to be sure she got their attention as the other people on the bike path passed her. Everyone loved her as they giggled with unexpected joy back at her. One guy even rang his bell back at her.
I heard her say she wanted to go speeding fast. And she did. Her little legs were going in small circles on the peddles. The faster the better. That was her only way to get to the stairs... "speeding fast."
The boys enjoyed the Burley. The faster I went the more giggles I heard from them. As Ruby would pass by us I heard them smacking their lips waiting for that salty kiss for their sister. She'd blow them a kiss explaining that she was too busy right now.
They liked their helmets. Sadly, when we put them in the Burley with them on, their helmets were so big they had to lean forward and had no room to turn their heads without bumping into each other.
The ride was a success. I came home with a proud little girl and happy little boys.
