late is better than never

For Christmas 2009 my little Mason got a Ford
Power Wheels from Santa.  Mason loved that little truck
sooooo much.  He drove it around and around
until the batteries ran out.  Then he'd get sad and start to cry a little and
we would tell him it wasn't broke, we just had to charge
the batteries. 

2 months later while riding the truck around in the yard, it died.
This time it wouldn't restart:(  I was not happy!  But I keep my receipts
for everything, so it was ok.  Not!  I couldn't find it anywhere.
No problem tho, Beau said he'd fix it...one of these days!
Well 1 year later (and 1 day exactly after I threw away the charge cord,
thinking it was useless to keep it around)
Beau fixes it!  It turns out a cord just came unplugged from down under,
and yes I dug in the trash and got the cord out-
anything for my little bits:)  It was definitely worth it to
see this happy little boy cruisin' around again!

Too cute. Jeffrey drools over those every time we go to Toys R Us. It is funny how digging in the trash is gross until it means making your babe happy, then it isn't so bad. :)
