Riding Bikes!
I bought Elizabeth the tiniest bike at a garage sale today. It is a princess bike. She was so excited to ride it.......it is just the right size for her. And, it was only $5!
So once Patrick realized that his little sister was riding a bike like his he had to get his out. He hasn't had much luck learning to ride up until now.......he couldn't seem to get the pushing the peddles forward part. So every time we tried he would get frustrated and quit. We didn't push it. But today he realized that he could do it!
Off Patrick goes. He went flying down Tom's driveway with barely a nudge from me to get started. Bet those training wheels come off fast!!
Patrick HAD to call Dad to tell him all about his accomplishments.
Off Liz goes. She can't ride by herself every time, but was doing really well until she lost her balance.
And there's our boy, showing off his skills. I am so proud of him. It is hard to teach him things. He doesn't have much patience and wants to do things perfect the first time or not at all (there was definitely no switches at the hospital....he's mine!). We knew it would come.
