We practiced coasting for a while first...as recommended in this Schwinn video by Joscie (thank you), but didn't take OFF the pedals.
Tomorrow is my niece's first birthday...Olivia likes to hold her, but I know it won't last much longer, she is getting big and is almost ready to walk.
Yesterday was my namesday...my sisters, Mary and Susanna and I celebrate together on the Sunday of the Myrrhbearers (the women who came to the tomb of Jesus with myrrh). It was also Mother's Day. I got many gifts: 2 plaster magnets painted by the girls, a Jerusalem artichoke (which I planted in our backyard), 2 pretty hanging baskets that are now on our porch, Ghirardelli Luxe Hazelnut chocolates (100% natural and SO good), a bar of soap from the monastery in WV, a little candle...BUT best of all was being with those I love the most.
My husband and dad went for a Harley ride together...my parents are at the hospital now for the Parkinson's study.
continued prayers for your Dad. You have one cool Dad :).
