Always Next Time



Remember the wide open smile on Buby's face when he took his first solo amusement ride? Well, we were shooting for that same reaction last Sunday at the fair. I thought we should mix things up a bit and show him something other than the red and yellow Jeep. The plan backfired. Daddy buckled him in and did the kisses. As soon as the ride took off, Buby's face scrunched up with worry. I knew the scrunch. It wasn't good. By turn two, he was balling hysterical. A desperate "SAVE ME" like cry that nobody in the park could ignore. I looked at Buby and started crying out... "It's Okay, Buby!!" I know, so dramatic. Tears started rolling and then it was "We're Coming, We're Coming!" The operator stopped the ride immediately to let Daddy take him off. Poor Buby. There's always next time. Ha!
