a lesson in parenting…

We took the kids on this a few weeks ago. Now I am not a fan of big wheels. If im going to be dangled from a great height I would rather just get it over and done with and not 'enjoy the view' so to speak…and big wheels go round slow. The thing I really dont like about them, however,  is the stopping and starting when they let people on. Waving to and fro in the air…it just ain't natural….but then neither is voluntarily putting yourself in a little box, dangling from a giant circle…..

anyhoo…the kids thought it was great. I tried to disguise my fears when it stopped and started and swung back and forth….

Not sure i did a very good job as Isaac shouted at the top of his voice, when it started swinging with a little bit more vigour, 'i think we re going to die!"

*cough cough* that will be me failing the 'dont pass your fears onto the kids' part of parenting 101 then…

i think i may have taken this picture with my eyes shut…
