For months and for reasons unknown, Will has been incredibly fearful of riding his bike. The only reason that I can think is that a few months ago he fell off his bike, and my ever-so-cautious first-born has refused to get on his bike ever since. We tried everything we could think to get that … Continue reading #142 Be Brave, Little One.

#139 Four-leaf Clover.
As we were playing outside today, Will asked me about clovers. I told him that usually clovers only have three leaves, but if you are lucky, you may find one with four leaves.
