Today, Owen decided he wanted to try riding his bike without the training wheels. Vanessa got a new bike without them so he wanted to be just like her. I was a little hesitant because he is still so little. He was insisting that I take them off so I gave in and did. We tried on the side walk at first. He kept riding into the grass and falling. He was so frustrated! I had to keep reminding him that it takes time and practice to learn how to ride a bike.
We took a break and then tried riding on the road. Our street is not busy so we could get lots of practice. After a few tries with me holding on, he took off and started riding on his own. We were both so excited!! I couldn’t believe how fast he picked it up! It sure made his day and he wanted to show everyone his new skill!
What fun times this is! I love seeing my my kids progress and learn new things. I’m glad I can be apart of it too! Summer is going to be full of biking riding fun for these two!
