Nothing is fair at the fair

I learned a lesson this weekend - Never take a child under two years to the fair.

They are not allowed to go on rides. This made Squirrel really sad. He sobbed and kicked and screamed. He doesn't understand why he can't go on the rides. He doesn't understand when I say to him in a gentle voice "I'm so sorry, I know it's not fair."

Bear had a blast. He went on the roller coaster twice - once with me and once with Nana. He went on some cars that went round and round, and a minuscule version of the Dumbo ride at Disneyland - except the containers (is that what you call them?) were fish or ducks instead of large eared elephants.

I can't wait til next year Squirrel. You and me are doing the roller coaster baby!
