our last attempt at kite flying required the kids to run as fast as they could through the park in order to keep the kite up. but we finally got some good wind and mom finally remembered to get the kites out. the wind was good and the kids loved it. i myself found it to also be very fun, i kinda liked the challenge of keeping it up. and have no shame in admitting that i am quiet skilled in the driver's seat of a kite. my kids don't call me "mom the bomb" for no reason! anyways, abbey was the best because all she did was stand there and hold the kite with 2 hands like she was told. brody and cloe on the other hand thought they had to downshift the gears when the wind got weak. they would pull the string or put the string up in the air and just moved around too much which would cause a crash landing, and mom to retrieve the kite from the weeds of the river bank. is that how you spell river bank? not to mention the italians riding by on their bikes.
so grazie grandpa allen!!!
