During the summers out here in Maryland, the volunteer fire
departments raise money by holding week-long carnivals. The food is
usually pretty good, and we go with Anna’s best friend Rachael and her
family when we can. The last one we went to, our friends picked up an
“unlimited rides” bracelet for Anna, for just $8. We went on the last
day it could be used, and darn it if we stayed for the rides even though
it was trying to rain a little bit.
Cara’s too small for the rides still, so her main ride is the
stroller. Anna and I took our first ferris wheel ride together this
summer, which I won’t soon forget. Anna just
loves the other
carnival rides, too, squealing, smiling hugely, laughing, waving as
she goes by. Those are the moments I wish we could freeze and hold on
to forever.
