Janie’s birthday gift arrived in the mail about 3 weeks ago and had been sitting in a brown box by the door until today when Daddy opened it to reveal the gift to her. She looked at it and said, “it’s a bicycle!”
She waited in her chair and watched Daddy assemble it. She looked like a little princess watching her minion do her bidding.
When it was time to try it out, she hopped on and wasn’t sure how it was supposed to work. It has only 2 wheels and no pedals. Hm… Mommy told her it was kind of like riding her Moo Cow and she said “ok, sounds good.”
Once she put on some pants, shoes, and a helmet, she took the bike for a spin up and down our hallway. She’s learning how to just walk with the bike while balancing and keeping it straight. It’s pretty slow right now and will take some practice but when she finally gets it, she will have learned how to balance on a 2-wheeled bike without needing training wheels!
