a bike ride

|she loves to pick weeds flowers whenever we are outside|

We took the kiddos out for a bike-ride the other day. Caleb is actually doing really well riding his, but Makayla still needs a lot of help i.e. Mommy bends over the whole time pushing her along and wondering when she got so old that her back hurts so much. Then we noticed half-way through that her front tire was flat - no wonder she was so hard to push!

We ended up at the swings, but didn't stay out too much longer because it was so hot - it was close to 100° that day.  I think Caleb could have stayed out there all day though. The heat doesn't seem to phase him as much as it does the rest of us.  Poor Makayla is always dripping in sweat and looks miserable while Caleb just glistens.  We decided all future bike-rides will be happening after dinner when it's slightly less hot outside.

I cannot believe that we are already smack-dab in the middle of summer.  I will be back soon to talk about how Caleb is five years old now and is going into kindergarten, and how just typing that sentence makes me sad and happy and scared and excited all at the same time.
