I've been thinking...
Well I don't know if Grace is going to blog about this but I can give my personal experience. After church yesterday I didn't have Sunday school so Daddy offered to let me ride his electronic bike. After ridding it a little ways I thought it was very neat. "I bet I could ride this to school often," I thought. But about a mile out of town, a car swerved around me and made me think, "If I keep riding this far into the road those cars will keep getting closer". I went closer to the edge and got wobbly for a second then the bike came to an abrupt halt and I did not. It was also fun to soar through the air for a bit thinking, "Daddy told me it goes fast." I got up thinking "OK, It was just a small spill." Then I started thinking, "Ow. Maybe not." The car that swerved around me came back and a guy got out with tons of band-aids. "When I fall off a bike the thing that hurts the worst is my pride," Said the man sounding like the Brady Brunch dad "Yeah right!" I thought. He offered to take me in his tiny car with already three kids in the back and a tiny trunk, but quickly thought better of it when a truck came by. They drove me back to church were I interrupted my parents Sunday School to go home. "Maybe Joel can still learn how to use that bike," Thought my family. Maybe when I take off these bandages I can take a picture of my road rash.
