Two Bugs on a Rug

Sandy owns a sharp 2000 Volkswagen Beatle Turbo, which she purchased new. In the last few years the car hasn’t gathered many miles. Working from home means no mileage gathered commuting to work, and backseats too small for car seats means all family drives are taken in the minivan. But while the twins have never ridden in Sandy’s bug doesn’t mean they are not aware of it. In fact, every time they see a bug they yell “look, silver Mommy car” or “look, yellow Mommy car.” Their favorite toy automobiles are also Mommy cars. When rolled backward a few inches, the cars’ engines will wind then thrust quickly forward. Having recently discovered this trick, the boys raced Mommy cars all afternoon.
