Educate 'em Young

I've just been out playing in the garden with my 2-year-old daughter and
my 20".
Granny came out and, after being prompted to look at Daddy, asked:
"Is Daddy riding his bike with one wheel?"

Jenny replied:
"No, Daddy ride unicycle."

That's my girl :-)

Too Cute.

When I bought the coker my kids were visiting the EX. When my 4YO
daughter (she'd never seen a unicycle before or heard it mentioned as
such) saw the uni she said "Mommy - you got a bike - a BIG bike". Then
she thought about it for a moment and said "No, it's not a bike, it's a
wheel". Now she wants to ride it and to help me learn how to ride.

She's more observant than a whole slew of adults out there. At least we
know we're raising our girls right. The 14YO boy child took one
look at the coker, knew it was a unicycle, and refused to even consider
riding it. I blame his father's influence.

I think it's time she learns to ride too. That would make smarter and
COOLER then most adults.

I think she'll want to learn. But at the moment she's happy telling
everyone that she's off to work on her tricycle.

I first sat Jenny on a unicycle when she was 2 months old, and she loved
it even then. Yesterday she had her first taste of bunnyhopping. I
picked her up, sat on the unicycle and hopped around a bit.

But now to go OT, Jenny now has a baby brother, born last night:

Upon reading that, I clapped my hands in admiration! Mind you, there
was no one around.
