Helmets Ahoy

"I want to wear a helmet when I try out the bike in the garage" Jeffrey announced referring to the new spin bike we had just purchased.

Well alrighty then, I didn't realize I had invited him to try it.

I also didn't realize that his feet could reach the pedals.

"You don't have to wear a helmet when you ride a bike like that"

"Why not?"

"Because you only wear a helmet when there is a possibility or think you might fall."

"Well I expect to fall.. thats why I want a helmet."

A kid with a plan thats what I like.

"Um Jeffrey?"

"Yes"

"I hate to break it to you but you wont fit on the bike in the garage. You're legs aren't long enough."

"I know..... thats why I need the helmet."

Well who can argue with that?
