Just The Boys

Mary worked last night. So, Robby, Ben and I let her take a nap while we went for a bike ride on the Merrimack. We arrived and found a bunch of local high schools competing in a rowing race. Westford wasn't there, so we cheered for Andover (they seemed to have the biggest fan base.) I convinced Robby to use his big, new, red bike. He is still very cautious on it, because he fell a few times learning to use it. I had to promise him I would not let him fall, for him to use it today. He is doing a lot better. We took a break from riding to feed the ducks some cookies. Ben was having fun feeding the ducks, when Robby realized we were throwing cookies, and started having some for himself. Haha After we ran out of cookies, the kids rode their bikes back to the car. Robby was getting comfortable with his big bike and would drive far ahead, then stop and wait for Ben and I to catch up at each bench. Brothers for life.
