Lucky is in the parkπππ
I gripped the low wooden handrail of the toddler slide, hauling myself up one painted step at a time until I reached the top platform. Down below, the smooth yellow chute curved gently into a bed of cedar mulch. Clamping my banana tight against my tummy, I sat right on the glossy metal edge and pushed off with both feet. Whoosh! My plush bottom zipped down the slippery dip so fast my ears fluttered, and I landed softly in the woodchips with a merry poof! Hee-hee, I scrambled right up to look back at the shiny trail I'd just raced down.
