The dirtbike rider

This morning, Richie called to invite Ella for breakfast. We don’t usually let her out of the house during mornings and they don’t usually call Ella that early (she can go out at around 4pm) but since she is “mourning”, we let her go out. I think Richie and Irene are trying to make her forget about Miyaki too and so today she was pretty spoiled by all.

My favorite shot by Donald

This girl can really drive you crazy. It’s just like yesterday when we bought her first bike. She was barely two. Then at age four we bought her a bigger bike and after a few weeks, she asked her daddy to remove the training wheels. Donald and I took turns holding the seat while she drives and in a breeze she drives her own bike like a pro at 4! Well she grew taller and we should get her a bigger bike and so we did last March. When we moved here in Davao last October, she surprised me one day when she rode an adult bike.

She spent hours at their house (went home just to take a bath then left again) and in the afternoon she came to tell me that Richie will teach her to drive his dirtbike and asked me if we could let her practice. I appreciate that they sent Ella home first to ask permission from us. I was hesitant because it’s powered by gas and it’s heavy (tho it’s body is small) so it’s not easy to maneuver but I know Richie knows how to handle kids so out went Ella screaming with glee. Donald was out with Eman that time and before she started her very first ride, she was sent home to get the camera.

All the kids in the neighborhood were jealous

Donald’s turn to burn fats

The proud father documented it. He took these photos (except of course the photo above) and he asked me to video Ella while he ran beside her.

Up close and personal

Donald and I tried it too and it’s pretty cool! Richie has actually two of this cute thing and were ordered from his friend in Japan. Glad Ella was busy nevertheless she will spend her day at home crying over her dog who is fighting her life with canine distemper. This is one of Ella’s biggest dream and I know Mamang is smiling up there.
