No More Training Wheels!

Today was a fantastic day for Grace!  Andrew took the training wheels off of her bike and followed (at times ran) as she began to ride without training wheels!  After about 5 minutes, Grace was riding by herself and requesting that daddy stay back to watch.  She wanted to ride all by herself!  Of course, Andrew chose to remain near her the entire time.  Good call daddy!  Grace was thrilled with this accomplishment, as was her little sister.  As soon as Grace began to ride by herself, Kaitlyn chased after her yelling "I knew you do it, GRACE!!!"   Good job Grace!  We are all SO proud of you!  You are definitely our determined little girl!  Another childhood milestone met, just shy of turning 5 years old!  



A little story about Grace's progress.....A few weeks ago, Uncle Phil sent Grace and Kaitlyn a new bike called the Kazam.   It is a pink bike without pedals.  The goal of the bike is to teach children how to balance properly while on a bike.  Less than two weeks later, Grace has accomplished the task of learning to ride her bike without training wheels!  Now time to teach Kaitlyn how to ride!  HA!  Just kidding.  Maybe next year!  Thanks for the bike, Uncle Phil.  It sure has been a hit!
