Rain offers boy's mom a moment to remember
For my young son's birthday, he received a shiny new red tricycle as a gift. He was so proud of it and was very happy riding it in the yard.
One day it started to drizzle. He hopped off his little tricycle and ran into the house. When I asked him where he had left his new trike, he told me it was still out in the yard. I explained to him how important it was for him to take care of it, and that he should bring it in out of the rain or else it will get rusty.
Thinking for a minute, he exclaimed, "Please, Mommy, I don't want to get rusty!"
