A Special Visitor

 
The other day Gerrit was outside while I was feeding Emmit.
I didn't realize he was riding his trike until he came inside with a visitor...

OFFICER Gene (he looks like Barney Fife)
He wondered if I knew Gerrit was down the street. I didn't really know he was that far away, but said "yes" for a lack of anything better to say. Gerrit knows his boundaries and hadn't crossed the street so I was pretty happy. Sure, it probably isn't the safest thing for him to be riding w/o an adult, but I was by myself and helpless when I am nursing Emmit. I guess it does look a little odd from the police perspective seeing this little boy on his trike all by himself.

Officer Gene just wanted me to be aware he was down the street. I thanked him for being concerned and he was on his way to help keep the little town of Zumbrota safe.
