Motorcycle Mayhem

Carter was given a battery powered motorcycle as a hand me down that Cousin Andrew outgrew. This weekend Carter took it out for a spin. Although a little timid at first, he quickly made motorcycle mayhem down the sidewalk and through the parking lot behind Grandma Lynne's house. I can imagine he felt just as a 16 year old boy would feel when driving a car by himself for the first time. He just had this look of sheer joy and excitement on his face the entire time. While Jeff and I were excited for him, we also realized that soon the battery would need to be recharged and we would have one sad little boy on our hands. We quickly hatched a plan of distraction, that thankfully worked until the battery was charged once again. What did we do that distracted Carter away from his beloved motorcycle you ask? Ahh, the power of cookies and juice.
