Toran's birthday was last Sunday. I asked her what she wanted for her birthday and she said she wanted a bike with rainbow colors and glitter. So that's what she got. Oh and a helmet of course. Can anyone tell me why the helmet is so expensive? It's almost as expensive as the stinkin' bike. Anyway I digress, back to the bike. Toran invited some friends to join us for cake and ice cream and presents, it was great fun. When she opened the bike she was very excited and Anique started right in on putting the bike together for a late night ride. She demanded that there be no training wheels. Well after the first five minute biking adventure she was ready for those training wheels. She was very proud of her ability to ride all by herself. After many days of riding her bike from the first possible moment of the morning to the last glimmer of sunlight, she came in one afternoon and fell on the couch. She burst out saying "I am soooo exhausted! I've been puddling and puddling all day."
Taken by surprise I asked "what did you say?".
"I've been puddling and puddling on my bike and I am tired, I need a brake."
"Puddling and puddling, huh."
"Yes, I was turning this way and that way and puddling as fast as I can (arms and legs moving in a wild and fast motion to demonstrated just how fast she is) and now I need a brake."
"Oh, ok then." I say trying so hard not to laugh out loud to much.
So if you are puddling and puddling as fast as you can, you may need a break and a Popsicle according to Toran.
