We are coming to the home stretch here.. day 4. Today was another beautiful day and we had a full evening of biking. We visited the library and spent some time looking at all the new books and then took the LONG way home. No rush.. nothing to hurry home to.. a chance to enjoy the wind in your hair (oh wait.. helmet) while leisurely biking through the neighborhood. Our amazing discovery on Thursday was our imaginations. A simple bike ride became a tremendous journey through space. We fought aliens, met a new creature, conquered the dust hole, and saved the planet. (See a long ride home can be quite the adventure with two little boys!)
The fresh air has done wonders to all of our spirits.. or maybe it is just the beauty of a challenge. You know… when you are “winning” it sure is fun! And the best part of this challenge.. it hasn’t been that hard.
But I will admit that the boys have been hyper lately.. I think staring blindly at the TV or video games zaps their energy.. which sometimes is a good thing. However that extra energy can be tunneled into good use.. building a garden, sweeping the garage, pulling weeds. So far it’s working but I wonder how long it would last.
