Abby, Zoë and Enzo

I had just put up the calendar of summer events paper that I got from the library and noticed in the top row that the reading program kick-off was for Thursday with a rain date of Friday.  We were all excited that we'd be able to go to it since the weather wasn't so bad, and we were even seeing breaks of sun.  Kate decided to meet us at our house and go have a picnic with us at Four Tree Island for the kick-off.  Well, we got over there and there was nothing.  We had our picnic anyway, and the girls played on the playground so it wasn't a complete loss.  I realized later that the top row was not the first week of July but rather the last week of June.  I felt so badly for the girls that I'd messed up the weeks, as the 26th would've been nice enough for them to hold it.  We've gone the past two years so I'm feeling pretty guilty about this one.

Abby was off to a rough start today.  She forgot how to do push ups this morning and was emotional about it.  Zoë picked it up right away.  Both girls managed to finish up strong despite the rocky start.  We might do the day three on Sunday and try to get back to our normal M-W-F schedule for week five.

Enzo had his first bike ride this morning.  Thanks to Papa Norm I was not only able to get my used bike, but I also got Enzo a bike seat.  It's called a kangaroo seat by WeeRide and it goes in front of the rider.  I feel much better about Enzo being in front of me when I'm riding rather than in back.  We took a ride to the post office, through the park.  On the way home Enzo made use of the padded rest that sits between the handlebars... he rested his head and started to fall asleep.
