[blparent] to keep the stroller or not?

[Brandy W]

Just get a carrier you can use on your back for heavier children and return 
the stroller. You have 1 if you need it, you don't like pulling things, and 
if you haven't pulled from day 1 that thing is going to weigh a ton!


"When we treat children's play as seriously as it deserves, we are helping 
them feel the joy that's to be found in the creative spirit. It's the things 
we play with and the people who help us play that make a great difference in 
our lives."
- Fred Rogers
