Here we are, a week later, and I'm beating myself up for not making them put on helmets. I actually didn't think of it at the time. (Though, ever since my friend's daughter had to be flown by helicopter to Fairfax Hosp, after a minor fall on her scooter, I don't like to take chances with head injuries.) But on the flip side, there is a part of me that knows that I probably smother them way too much. Ugh! I wish I could have an objective perspective on these sorts of things. It's easy for me to get bogged down in the "What Ifs".
Fortunately no one was injured and they had a blast. (And for anyone who is truly concerned for their safety, you'll be relieved to know that I had to use a V-E-R-Y slow shutter speed to show some action. Oh, I should include a disclaimer: professional photographer, don't try this at home.)

you might tell the kids if they do this again they need to wear their helmets. they might get the wagon out when you're not around to warn them about this. i agree--the helmets is a VERY good idea.
