prepared

While stroller-riding isn't normally considered a helmet-recommended activity, Luke does have a point. 

Life as #5 means that every now and then things tend to get a little wild and wooly with the stroller-pushing. 

I'm not telling how many times I've hollered "please slooooowwww down with the stroller" as the push-er and the stroller went careening around a corner!  Luke (no surprise!) enjoys the thrill of the ride. 

Momma's not so sure it's for the best. 

Today I was behind the stroller handles.  The helmet was a "keeping up with the big brothers" move - Matt took the boys on a bike ride (Isaac on his own bike, John Paul on the seat behind Matt) while I walked with Luke, the girls, and a spend-the-night friend to go pick up a few groceries. 

When Luke saw the helmets come out he was determined to be included in the fun, even if he wasn't getting on a bike :)
