The Training wheels are off for good now!! For awhile now, Jen has been trying to figure out the whole bike with no
training wheels thing. If mostly consisted of Jim holding the back of the bike and Jen falling off, pouting and being mad at herself for not being able to get it.

Today, she made the plan to try it again. She was going to do it her way. She ran in
grabbed all of her pads and helmet and tried her hardest not to fall. At first it
wasn't going so well with her only
making one turn of the
wheels, but a a few moments, she quickly got the hang of it. First it was one house then one and a half then two and three. Soon, she was turning around in the driveway without even realizing it.

She was so proud if herself and her new accomplishment. When Jim got home she wanted to play a little trick on him, so she told him " Daddy, I've been trying all day and I just can't get it-watch". She got on her bike and peddled down the street. He was so shocked and she had the biggest grin on her face the entire time.

The next stop is to the bike store to get the kick stand for her bike. Jim had promised to get her one once she had the
training wheels off for good. I think she will be picking out the most colorful one in the store.
