Bikes

Moolah keeps track of things she can't reach and how much she has to grow until she can reach them. The handle above the door in the car is a big goal. The other day, reaching the bathroom door from the potty was important. I measured and showed her with my hands how much she had to grow before she could reach it. She looked closely.

"And," she said, "when I grow this much (holding her arms out wide), I can have a motorcycle."

"You have to grow at least that much before you ride a motorcycle, maybe even a little more."

"No, when I grow this much (demonstration), I can have a motorcycle."

"How about you learn to ride a bicycle first?"

"OH! That's a good idea, Mama!!"
