Auntie’s baggage was broken. She needed to buy a new one. Last Sunday after lunch Mommy took Auntie and Gabby to the mall for baggage shopping while Daddy and Rebecca stayed at the church for Chinese School.
There were so many interesting things in the mall. Gabby wanted to do explorations on her own. When Mommy was thinking how to keep Gabby under control, they saw kids shopping carts in the lobby. Kids who sit in those carts can mimic driving. Gabby wanted to drive one of those carts. Mommy thought it was a good idea to put her in there so that she and Auntie wouldn’t need to track her in the mall. It would also make her happy during the shopping. So Mommy paid $5 and got a cart.
Gabby was very happy just as Mommy thought. While she was “driving” either Mommy or Auntie had to push the cart. The cart stopped when the person who pushed it stopped. As soon as it stopped the little driver would ask to move. The cart had to keep moving while she was “driving.”
During the whole time Gabby was “driving” the cart. The shopping was very relaxing due to the cart. Auntie and Mommy bought a baggage at Sears. After that they set out for home. When Mommy was thinking how to persuade Gabby to leave the cart in the mall she told Mommy she didn’t want to drive any more. How sweet! She gave up before Mommy said a single word. They returned the cart and got 50 cents reward.
The little driver Gabby now has 1 hour "driving" experience. She can "drive" kids shopping carts and any other similar carts. She also has related experience in riding tricylces and bicylces with two training wheels.
