Bike/Trailer Excursion

Just wanted to share a sweet story about this adventure.  We packed up the bike trailor for a 12 mile (round trip) bike trip to Rock Creek Pumpkin Farm.  The trip there was smooth sailing.  We had a nice picnic under a shaded tent and saw some fun farm animals, climbed on hay bails, etc.  Robb had to jet early to get back for a client so the kids and I adventured back alone.  We were pushing nap time slightly so Coda was tired and probably not too excited about getting back in the bumpy trailer ride for yet another 6 mile trek.  Anyway, he was fussy and crying.  I got them as comfy as possibly and started biking, hoping that the trip would soothe him, as car rides often do.  He fussed for about 3 minutes then suddently stopped.  I looked back and saw Nevi putting her arm around him and singing to him.  She sang 'This Old Man' to him over and over for the entire 6 miles home and before I knew it, Coda was fast asleep in her lap.  She kept holding him and singing to him no matter, one arm around his body and the another hand on his cheek.  It was the most precious thing I'd ever seen.  Ahma taught Nevi this song and it has been her fav ever since!  To top it off, as I was unloading the kiddos at home, I noticed that the picnic cooler that was in the back of the trailer had a corner that was pointing right into Nevi's back.  When I asked her about it she just said nonchalantly that it sticking her back the whole ride home but that she just wanted Coda to be quiet and comfy. The sacrifices a big sister makes!  I have never been prouder of my sweet girl!!!!
