Responsibility learned the hard way.


See this bike?  You've never seen it before.  That's because I bought it off of Pembina Valley Online last week after my boy lived a rather long summer week without a bike, in a neighborhood where all the children ride their bikes all day long, and he was left out.  You will never know how long a week can be until you've lived with a four year old who is super excited to be riding bike because he just figured out how to ride without training wheels, but who doesn't have a bike to ride. 

The reason this boy needed a new bike: he left his bike out on the driveway overnight...behind the truck.

We hope the lesson was hammered home in his four-year-old brain, because after all his whining it certainly was hammered into mine:  Put your toys away when you're not using them!!

  1. Ouch! Well, he's a smart boy, I think he got it. Did you do an autopsy of the bike?
