Cat just goes off to her own little world and then she forgets about the people on bicycles and then they have to ring their bells for her to get out the way and then I have to shout at her cause she's not hearing the bells --- so all I can say is good luck at 10 she has still not outgrown it.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10961681249365302056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-5531027111792281592012-10-12T03:36:50.750-06:002012-10-12T03:36:50.750-06:00After two years of doing this myself with Bella, I...After two years of doing this myself with Bella, I'm grateful that she takes the bus here!!! Her line was "my legs are broken!". Seriously??? Such drama.<br /><br />So yeah, I know what you're going through and you have my sympathy! Perhaps encouraging her about all the fun things to do at school will help in the mornings? Or at home in the afternoons?

They have literally had to call my cell to find out where I was before. Embarrassing. :( Needless to say, I am working on my walking speed!<br />P.S. Hubs and I could never hold hands when we took a walk (back when we took walks aka before kids) because it looked like he was kidnapping me or something. Haha! Kinda funny now, I guess!

I used to think it was a toddler thing, but the neighbor has a 2 year old who keeps up with her. My kid has to stop and look at every little thing she finds on the sidewalk or look at someone's decorations. I am guessing she will be like Natalie when she is older, just walking along soaking in her surroundings. :)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959492917608331562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-43842088437181373602012-10-11T07:23:14.844-06:002012-10-11T07:23:14.844-06:00Maybe you can learn to slow down, and look at the ...Maybe you can learn to slow down, and look at the flowers (on the way home, going to school there is a time requirement)<br />JoeinVegashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05613274657685121948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-40352711401096957602012-10-11T07:10:32.412-06:002012-10-11T07:10:32.412-06:00Ha ha!

The other day I was shopping in Target and I was actually getting frustrated because I was walking behind these two women who were walking so s-l-o-w-l-y. They were like a snail. If I could pass them up, you KNOW they were slow! Actually, I couldn't pass them up, because there wasn't any room, so I had to cool my jets while they lolly-gagged their way to the cashiers!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17756564685282866773noreply@blogger.com
