Each year our preschool participates in St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's trike-a-thon. Jesse had been looking forward to the event for two weeks! He got his sponsors, collected his money, walked around all week saying, "step one, always wear your helmet; step two, stay out of the street; step three, be careful near driveways; step four, always watch where your going", and asked me EVERY day if tomorrow was the day! He was so excited to take his bike to school! And what happened? This past Friday morning, the BIG day, he woke up feeling crummy! But......he was not to be deterred! He DID NOT want to stay home! He WAS riding his bike in the trike-a-thon! So he went to school, had a wonderful time, and left school with Daddy as soon as his ride was over. And take a look at that smiling boy...can't you just see the joy!
All excited to bring his bike to school!
