Yesterday I took the older two boys to Six Flags. It was Reid’s (5) first trip to an amusement park. I had a sneaking suspicion that my little adrenaline junkie would enjoy himself. We started in Looney Tunes land with the kids rides.
We then worked our way through the park onto bigger rides. Reid fell in love with the roller coaster. He was interested in riding them all, but at a little taller than 42″ that is not an option.
For the last ride of the day I found one of the bigger coasters that would allow him ridership at his short stature. I sat next to him and heard his happy screams. When it was over I was surprised to turn and see this:
Such a sad face!
“Reid, did that scare you?”
“No mommy.”
“Then why are you so sad?”
“Why can’t roller coasters be longer?”
We were on our way out the door to go to Six Flags over GA this a.m. and the power sliding door on the van broke! We couldn’t budge it with or without power and we’ve spent the whole morning finding someone to fix it and get a rental.
I’d rather be riding roller coasters! All day long!
Bless his little pea picking heart! Me too Reid me too!
Awww. You may be in big trouble.
How cute. Just tell him they wouldn’t be as fun if they lasted longer!
I know I was twice his age on my first coaster ride (Worlds of Fun in KC,MO), but I had the SAME exact response.
I hate roller costers. If my kids like them they are riding alone you are very brave
I have to agree you are crazy for going on such a hot day. WE are soo bummed we missed the experience. Maybe we can all go togeather another time. I am assuming that was Judge ROy Scream or Tony Hawk. Luke has done both of them and had the same look. But not the same answer..GLad you guys had fun.. How did Ryan do??
awe! I share that same sadness, honestly!
Oh just precious….And you’re NUTS for going to Six Flags on such a hot day! Glad you guys had fun 🙂
Oh I hope my boys are like yours, because my husband vomits on roller coasters, and I am so not wanting to go through that again.
