Clayton is getting so big and brave. He has loved the new adventure of riding the 4wheeler at Papa Bruce and Grandma Jeri's farm. We really were not sure if he would ride on his own or not!? Uncle Tim was there for the first ride. He set Clayton up with the helmet, goggles and riding gloves. I call the equipment the "extra courage". Tim rode on the back and guided Clayton through the steps of starting the machine, steering, running the throttle, brakes and all of the safety precautions. They rode around the building site and Clayton pulled up to the barn and turned to Tim, "You can get off now. I can handle this!"

He sure did! Cautious but confident:)

A quote from Clayton yesterday, "Mom! I am getting SO tall. Those growing pains worked!"
