Hello Friends!
Ya know, the other day my parents and I were going on a long car ride for our big winter ski trip. You should have seen the trunk, I think my dad fit our whole house in there!
Well because it was a long car trip, my dad put a cooler of cold drinks and snacks between me and my baby sister’s car seat, but what we did not know was that the cooler was sitting on top of the seat belt buckle, and accidentally unfastened it!
Fortunately for all of us, but especially my baby sister, my dad did not get too far before he had to stop abruptly and my baby sister’s car seat fell forward into the back of my mommy’s seat.
My baby sister was not hurt, but started crying because she was scared, and my dad quickly pulled over to re-secure her car seat.
Now if it is was me, I definitely would not have cried like my baby sister, but I have to admit, I would have been scared too.
So take my advice friends;
The next time your mommy or daddy puts anything next to you or your baby brother or sister’s car seat, make sure that it is secure so it won't move around during the trip or if you are in an accident, and definitely make sure it is NOT sitting on the seat belt buckle...okay?
Oh, and by the way, we had an AWSOME ski trip. My snowboard was wicked smooth and I thrashed that mountain.
