Megan loves Sleddin’

There once was a girl named Megan

Who absolutely loved sleddin’

Steep hills and fresh white snow

Down the hill she would go

hair flying free, then she’d go again

(She really puts her hair up and under a hat. Otherwise, she would be brushing snarls out all day!)

“Aim For Momma!”

It is a silly game we play, sort of like chicken. For them to win, the kids need to steer the sled in such a way that they can get close enough to hit me on the legs with their hands, but they are not allowed to run me over. If I move as they are coming, I lose.

In the years we have “played” this game, I can not remember ever being run over. But the kids are getting very good at steering so close they hit my legs a lot. Adrian is great at this game and Megan is quickly improving. Both together, and I almost never win.
