Something that made me laugh

When Lacy asked us to think about a memory that made us laugh I immediately had a vivid memory from when I was younger.  I am the youngest of three girls and when I was younger  I wanted to do everything that my two older sisters were doing.  We grew up on a street with a bunch of kids our ages.  Everyday after school and on the weekends all of the kids on the street would play outside and ride bikes or roller blade.  I begged and begged my parents to let me take my training wheels off but they kept telling me that I was too little to ride a bike without training wheels.  Finally, after months of begging they finally let me do it.  I remember being in the street and my mom was holding that back of my bike so that I could balance.  I was a feisty four year old and I wanted to do it all by myself.  I pushed my mom away and took off down the street on a two wheeler with out and struggle at all.  My parents and myself were in udder amazement.

As I was thinking and writing about this day in my day book I couldn't help but laugh.  What four year old gets on a bike and rides it with out any practice? At the time, if I was my mom, I think I would have had a heart attack.  When we get to write about fun memories it always puts me in the best moods because I get to think about all of the fun I had growing up.  I love reminiscing on the past!!
