She did it!

Paige has officially learned how to ride her bike without training wheels! She loves it and we are so proud of her.

After almost all summer of having no peddles on her bike, for balancing purp0ses, Paige said she wanted to put her peddles back on so she could ride her bike. Curtis and I observed her balancing skills as she launched down the driveway into the garage. At this moment she just looked older and so ready to take on this new adventure. Curtis was excited, too, and put those peddles back on. It was off to the park we went! Curtis ran along side Paige barely placing his hand on her back and occasional helping her out. It was a great night of practice!

Early the next morning, Paige was anxious to go out and ride her bike again! Curtis joined in her excitement and off they went. Immediately, Paige took off all on her own. It was an awesome experience for all of us! Here I was out in the street at 7:45 a.m., in my pajamas, taking video of Paige riding her bike. We are all so happy and to accomplish this by the end of summer was even better. It was high on our list of things to accomplish and Paige was happy to check it off the list.

Now, each day we load up our bikes and go down to the levy to ride bikes. It is a great way to spend time as a family!
