Trailer and Texting = Smiles

PLEASE NOTE: I am not condoning texting while biking, I never ever do that… couldn’t if I wanted too…

My pink fat tired, fat seat, fat pedal cruiser was waiting for me! I was waiting for the snow to be gone. The bike and I are united! LET’S RIDE!

I adore my bike trailer; black and yellow with a big flag and blink-y lights on the back. The littlest two and I get so much joy out of being able to just take off on a bike ride! I don’t know how I did without one!

I am a bike rider! I think about it all winter and found it so hard for years not being able to do it very often because of babies. NOW things are so different and we have been going all over town. Sure the trailer is like having a parachute behind me and it gets pretty hard to peddle with a wind but I enjoy the freedom and fresh air in spite of all that. It really is freeing to ride a bike in the city, freeing from all that city traffic and rush… I just feel so good after biking them around town that I can’t wait to get out again.

Ah spring, no bugs yet, no intense summer heat yet, SO GRAND!

Normally I just want to go go go and can’t stand sitting in the park while Baby Boy and Little Woman play. I want to let them have their exercise but now that they both want me to leave them alone I sit there and can’t handle that for long. Solution? Will you hate me if I admit I like texting… I am sorry, it sure helps pass the time and the kids are happier because I will sit at the park longer. There is something so sweet about sending blurbs through time and space to my sisters, in BC or my sisters right here in the city, while I watch my kids throw dirt at one another.

Last year I was such a mess physically and could hardly do anything. This year I am feeling so much stronger; going for long walks and bike rides with Baby Boy and Little Woman, playing basketball and soccer with my Big Boy, skipping rope with my Big Girl. Ah it is easier on the mind to be active.

    soo i took kayden to the park the other day . he played in the puddles and i had an hour long text conversation with my friend. true story.

  2. Ha ha, I am not the only one! I knew it!!

    This is new for me but it is much cheaper then calling and I can pause at anytime to deal with my kids so much easier when texting:) I am so slow too, as I am still learning, that it really does give them lotsa time in the park!

Considerate and polite comments are always welcomed.
