Today we rode 6.6 miles and my daughter was sitting in her buggy on the back of my bike. About a mile in she was asking to get out but we were driving on the road so I told her it was not safe. I gave her the fan and a coloring book. Another mile down she was asking to get out again. I felt guilty, like I was forcing her to sit in the buggy. I didn’t know what else to do. We went down a hill and she loved it, she kept saying, “again mommy. Faster!” When we were going up the hill and I was struggling. I started feeling guilty again. Then we went down another hill. She kept wanting to go down hills and I was really feeling bad and slowing down. I was loosing motivation. Finally, I turned on a show for her. I hate doing that but I wanted to push myself because we were behind in our miles. I was doing this for the kids who don’t have the chance to be kids, to enjoy sitting outside playing in their yard and stuck in a hospital room, kids you are suffering day in and day out, and are not able to chat y any break. I am sorry to make my child sit in the buggy after she used her words and told me she wanted out I just wanted to finish.
We went to the zoo before the bike ride so the picture is her with the bird.
