Kaydes learns to ride her bike!

Kaydes had been talking for some time about taking her training wheels off her bike. Rick and I werent too sure she'd bounce back if her experience learning at an early age wasnt successful. The girl is COMPETITIVE and went into this learning to ride a bike thing like she had "been there-done that". She was (overly) confident but luckily this worked to her advantage b/c daddy sent her off pedaling in only a few tries. She had only two falls and she pretty much fell gracefully, which in some ways made her that much more confident, as we had talked up the falling as a natural part of the learning process and when it wasnt a big deal, she definitely thought she was "all that"! Well, within a day or two she was going on bike rides, without mommy and daddy, with the neighborhood boys. Pretty unbelievable if you ask me! Can start herself like a champ, rides with confidence and is actually kind of a dare-devil! Daddy and I are so proud of our (little) BIG girl!!
