We went to Coolidge Park the other day. I told Li if he rides his bike he can ride the carousel. He rode all the way around the park VERY slowly but he did it. We got our tickets and of course he wanted to play it safe and ride the seat. The man working the ride said mam you know that doesn't move up and down right. The animals I the middle move but that one doesn't. A little annoyed I replied I am aware this is the one he wants to ride. After the ride was over I told Liam he could ride again but he would have to ride an animal this time. He was a little hesitant but chose a bear. The funniest thing was there was a tiny grateful dead symbol on the side of Li's bear. Honestly I thought to myself what a cool little kid then I thought whoa I'm in trouble. Then for the first time in a long time I thought about his daddy. I thought this is one thing that would make him proud as weird as that is. Oh well I m just proud he rode his bike and graduated from riding the seat that doesn't move.
Now for swim lessons my goal is to have him swimming by the end of the summer as long as he's ready.
