Full Speed Ahead!

Over the summer Merek mastered driving his Radio Flyer "Rocket Racer"! He rides it around the cul-de-sac trying to keep up with his sisters and never gets discouraged when they lap him. He has also learned that if he chug-chugs his way up to the top of the hill, he can ride it down at lightening fast speeds. One day he got so wild that he lost his Crocs and literally skinned his feet raw! He didn't even notice that they were dripping with blood until I picked him off of it!

If you look closely at this photo you can see the "owee" starting on his toes! (I hadn't noticed the injury at this point or I would've stopped him!) Needless to say he has to wear his shoes and a bike helmet from now on!
