Not Ready To Advance

We visited the Reid’s Orchard Apple Festival today with Pa. This is the second year the boys have attended this festival and the fourth time that they’ve seen Casey’s Rides, the carnival ride vendor. The twins have also twice attended the May International Bar-B-Q Festival, who also employees Casey’s Rides services. We made our rounds to the same toddler rides, which they enjoyed like old pros. As we walked around the fairgrounds the boys showed interest in some of the big rides, and we discussed casually at what point they might be ready for those. Our answer came just a few minutes later when they took their first spin on the toddler ferris wheel. When it crested at a height of about 12 feet and stopped, they both showed enough concern to tell us they aren’t ready yet for any of the big rides.
