Here's to maintaining some self-respect and sanity while tending to the growth and maturation of young minds, including your own young mind. Here's to recognizing that it isn't necessary to know how everything is going to turn out in advance, and that often Life has much better in store than one can imagine. Here's to hope and happiness even when Life gets complicated, especially then... That's when it's needed it most.

...afterall, the car may only seat seven but room for friends is unlimited...

Biking

This morning, after dropping the older kids off at school, my two youngest and I were driving home when I noticed something interesting on the side of the road.

I pointed and said, "Look Q, it's a guy riding a recumbent bike."

Q looked over and said incredulously, "Why?"

First of course, I laughed. It wasn't what I thought he'd say, at all.
Then, we talked about the why because as it turned out, he was very interested in it. After I finished laughing he said again. "Why, mom? Why would someone want to ride a bike like that?"

I thought that maybe it was a back problem, or because he thought it looked cool or it was fun to ride.
I don't know, anyone know why recumbent bikes are cool?
