I have no intention of writing about all of Danny's birthdays and all the cute and not so cute things he did. lol However this one needs to be told. We were going to go down to the lake and spend Danny's second birthday with mom and dad. Mom was going to make him a little cake. Before driving down there, I stopped at a hardware store and had Danny sit on several tricycles to check for size. Then I took Danny around the store a while looking at some of the other toys and stuff. I had secretly given my keys to the salesman and he was putting the trike in the trunk of my car. Danny fell in love with a little stuffed monkey so I got it for him too. Well I drove us on down to mom's, feeling quite clever and pleased with my purchase.
Mom and dad came out of the house when they heard us pull in. After the hugs, Danny ran back to the trunk of the car and put his hand on it. I asked him what he was doing and he said "bike, bike, bike". I looked at mom and said quietly, "well, what do I do now". She said "you might as well go ahead and give it to him, he knows it is in there." Of course by then we were both laughing because he was just so darn cute standing there tapping on the trunk. So that is the year that he got a pretty little purple tricycle for his birthday.

I actually think I remember the tricycle, but not the story. Nice to know Grandma was fond of me from the start and supported me. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's right.
ReplyDeletethat is so funny! little kids are so smart. He must have heard you whispering to the salesman.
ReplyDeleteI guess so, or else he peeked.
ReplyDeleteDanny the reason you may remember the tricycle is that it became Laura's after you outgrew it and went on to a little bike. It was a pretty little purple trike.
