Kathy called me yesterday afternoon and asked me to grab a camera and come out as they had something to show me. And, what should my eyes behold once outside...but Elijah riding around in their front yard on a brand new bike. The Dazzling Dorrell's did a performance at a church yesterday afternoon and the church had one grand prize to give away...and guess whose ticket got pulled...Elijah's. So this is the second new bike that someone in their family won this year. Isaac won one at an Easter Egg hunt earlier in the year and now Elijah. Pretty nice. The biggest thrill for Elijah was that it was a "kick stand bike." His other bikes up to this point hadn't had kick stands. He still has a ways to grow for this bike to be the perfect size, but he has mastered it whether it is a bit large or not. He is whirring around the yard like he has been riding it forever. I wonder who will be the next to win a bike in their family!
Today has been a "get back in routine" day. We followed the regular schedule for school on Monday. Woody got a bit of a slow start on his day as he has allergy problems and he took some medicine that made him very sleepy so he lolled around for quite a while this morning. He waited to go on his four-mile walk till this afternoon. The temperature for this last day of summer has been quite cool...definitely it felt fall-like all day today. Good bye, Summer!
