Safety First

Crew has decided to play it safe (considering all his recent tumbles and endless tragedies he has experienced this summer.) While out in the back yard cruising on his "awesome bike" he asked for his 'helmet.' ...and so the conversation begins... My response, "You don't have a helmet." Crew: "Ya huh, mom." Me: positive there is no safety helmet in existence in our house replies to his surety, "Then go find your helmet and show me." Sure he would be in his room at least a good 5-10 min. contemplating what he could pull off as a helmet or loose his interest in the idea all together he came running out within seconds, helmet in hand....his football helmet!!! Crew: "Mom, see!?! I told ya!" It was a helmet none the least. He won, he was right....and I was happy that his bike riding experience for the day met the Mom's Safety Guidelines Regulations.

He's all boy! Glad he's thinking "safety first" because you're going to need it when he gets older! You're probably going to need some elbow and knee pads to go with that helmet too!!!
