I promised my wee one that I would take her into school on the "Red Princess" when it got cooler. It was 63 this morning as I was promptly told this by my news watching daughter :p:
After finding some warm close and bundling her up... I was looking at a big kolache waiting to go :eek: She couldn't stand still, bouncing around... a real pain puting her boots on :rolleyes:
Once outside we started the "Red Princess" so she could warm up... she already had her helmet on with her cat ears and tail blowing in the breeze... hooked up her chin strap and put her gloves on... the chatter box started... :) Placed her on the bike against the top box as she just giggled and giggled. I jumped on and kicked up the stand... "You ready?"... she grabbed me, "Yes!"... off we went on the "Red Princess".
On the main road we came to the 4way stop. Did my usual roll to stop no feet action since there was nobody at the intersection... she thought that was "neat!". I usually blow thru the rest of the road, but there are 3 mobile home parks with migrant workers who just whipout on you, so I just took my time with my priceless cargo on board.
Rolled into Tigerland Daycare with a couple other kiddos getting dropped off... oh the faces when they saw her ride :D Picked her up and set her down, took her backpack out of the topbox and inside we went, helmet and all :p: The ears and tail were the rage.... took her helmet said my usual goodbye and hugs... her eyes and smile said it all :)
This 5 minute ride will last a lifetime for her... me too ;)
