Charlotte had been in physical therapy for a little over a month now. The therapy center that we attend is fabulous and allows/requires any family members in attendance to be involved in the entire therapy session. This is great because BOTH of our girls are getting therapy each week for the cost of one! FL doesn't really need it except for some low muscle tone, which is, in part, because she doesn't enjoy physical exertion. She'd rather sit and draw,etc. and that's ok, too. : ). In the therapy sessions, they've been using a three wheeled scooter that they both enjoy and can do fairly easily. The scooter is helping with building muscle in the hips, which C really needs. My parents graciously offered to get the girls each a scooter (yes, they raised two children and know that one scooter would cause great sadness and turmoil!) so that we could do some therapy at home.
The girls were very excited and immediately set to riding the scooters around the inside of my parents' house! C named her scooter "Rose" and FL named hers "Red Cupcake." So appropriate for both of their personalities!
Ok, Pie-Pie, I don't think that's the recommended way to use it...
I caught her sizing up my dad's trailer to see if there was any mischief she could get into... I think almost every single thought in her head begins with, "let's see what would happen if I ...." She's going to keep us on our toes in the years to come!
I was the same way whe I was little, though. I think I might still be!
Only a cute little girl on a pink scooter could make a SIL and FIL hold hands (even if it was to make a tunnel)!
Two heads are better at coming up with silliness than one! I'm going to have to ask our physical therapist if this is an approved way to ride!
Riding off into the sunset... So glad they are our daughters and so glad they have each other for a sister!
