Jack has been asking to take his training wheels off of his bike for a couple months. Scott and I have been a little hesitant (primarily one of us...guess who?), but decided to just give it a try this past Friday evening.
Scott started Jack on a gradual slope in our yard (a path recommended by our neighbors) and within minutes, our adventurous 4 year old had mastered that terain and was begging for the open road. 15 minutes later, Jack was able to stop himself with his brakes and get himself started, too. The neighbors were all part of the excitement and cheered Jack on in his success! Our little Lance Armstrong turned to Scott after one of his rides and proudly exclaimed, "Daddy, I'm SOOOOO happy!"
Jack's friend from next door, Adrienne, actually captured the best video of Jack's rides. I had gone in to finish dinner, and Jack rushed in a few minutes later and declared, "So far, so good!" So far, so GREAT, Jack!
