This is a quintessential summer morning, Becker-style. Before the sun gets too hot, the kids drag their bikes out to ride around the circle and up and down the sidewalk, while I sit in my chair with my coffee. It really, truly, does not get any better than this. I've spent the first hour of many summer mornings in this exact spot for more than ten years now. I'd say I've definitely gotten my money's worth out of that $5 white plastic chair.
David is not quite up to Cat-1 bike racing yet, so he's just chillin' in his ride with the windows down, eating some animal cookies.
Our bicycle collection has not fared as well as our white plastic chair collection has over the years. In a big family, bikes (among many other items) get handed down as they are outgrown by the older children. Our littlest 12-inch kiddie bike was finally beaten up beyond repair, leaving poor little Renee without a ride this summer. Lucky for her we stumbled upon a just-right for her bike at a garage sale this weekend for ten bucks. She's back on the road and ready to go!
