i might turn the title above into a recurring theme on this blog. where every so often i mention a moment, share a quote from my kids, or post a pic that literally made me smile. it won't necessarily be the first week of every month (although, the "type A" in me would feel better doing it that way :)) or even just once a month. it will randomly appear just when these life experiences come up and are worthy of sharing. time is whizzing by, so verryyyyy fast. i want to freeze frame the awesome memories that sometimes are overshadowed by the mundane or yucky.
one such moment is seen in the pictures below. Adam saved birthday money and scoured the Internet for the right bike that suited his wants/needs and, of course, budget. we ordered the bike, tracked it online as it made its way to Port Huron, and last Friday we crossed the bridge to pick it up. it came only partially assembled, but this "engineer-minded" child of mine welcomed the chance to finish building his new, burnt-orange BMX bike.
it was a pleasure to watch him. it made me smile. he wanted very little help from his dad, who offered, but instead preferred to systematically assemble his new treasure late into the evening. his sister was asked to hold the handle bars while they were secured in place. it was sweet to see.
happy riding, Adam!
