Who Cares if it's Pink?






Ethan is my favorite toddler. This is what we found in an alleyway in downtown Peoria today while taking a walk, waiting for our car to get fixed. After hitting off some of the cobwebs with my flip-flop, I let him ride it down the street to the auto shop. Once there, we used some shop rags and some good 'ole drinking fountain water to wash it up. I'm pretty sure the mechanics got a kick out of him almost as much as I did. One spider and hundreds of cobwebs later, he proudly rode his car around the shop until our bigger car was fixed. Then, much to his satisfaction and delight, I let him take it home with us. Much thanks to the little girl who previously owned this treasure: you made my little boy's day.

I am just happy he has something to play with in the back yard besides the rocks.

There is always a cure to fixing things that are pink, PAINT THEM!!!!

Becca used to have this little green car that she would sit in and ride around our patio and yard. It was like alittle VW. She would walk it around with her feet and drive with the steering wheel. She was really in to that little car. Ethan is so cute! I love that he cleaned off his little car.

so cute. i remember I actually bought my two year old son a pink lawn mower because it's all I could find and I knew he would love it. He never cared one bit about the color. Awesome.
