Riding in My Pink Cadillac

This afternoon the kids and I headed out to the playground in our neighborhood. On the way we ran into neighbors who were practicing their driving skills. The two elementary school girls were sweet enough to let Wesley and another boy drive their cars.


Wesley loved driving the pink Cadillac. When he first got in the driver's seat he asked me, "How do I turn?" I told him to turn like he was turning his bike. That worked fine until it was time to back up; one of the other moms had to help him with that. Lydia was thrilled to ride in the car. Thankfully she didn't ask to drive.

Lydia also rode around with Max who is 4 1/2. I told his mom, "Oh, one day they will be old enough to car date." Max's mom replied, "Hopefully it won't be in a pink car."

Wesley also liked this Jeep.
The owner of this Jeep, who is almost 8 years old, had to help him drive because it was so much faster than the Cadillac. She was so sweet to let him have a turn and to very patiently help him.
When Chris was almost home from work tonight, he called to ask what we were doing. All I told him was, "Go get my camera and meet me at Max's house." He said he was surprised when he pulled up and found the road was blocked and the kids were driving in the motorized cars. He also thought they were very cute.

When we finally got Lydia away from the cars, she gave Daddy a sweet kiss.
