Race Car Driver

K, you might be the best five-year-old race car driver I have ever seen.

Hear me out.

We all went to Ruidoso a few weeks ago.

By that, I mean Pop and Gammies, the Daves, and us.

We all rode the race cars at the track there. I forget what the place is called and I’m too tired to look it up.

Anyway, you and I rode together first on the big track.

We had an advantage of being at the front of the line to start, but we kept it the entire race and won! We even lapped some little boy.

But that wasn’t the best part.

The best part was watching you race on the smaller track after that.

Three other girls were in your group. Letting each girl start one at a time, you started in last place.

And you won!

After the race was over we all praised you.

You just smiled and said “Yeah, whenever someone slowed down, I just went around them.” 😳
