Parker's New Bike

Parker's new bike had arrived (well...dad picked it up) when we got home yesterday. He immediately wanted to ride it so we went to the school where he hopped on and rode off. He looked great on it and rode it like a pro. So much better than the tiny thing we were making him ride. Elizabeth then hopped on his old bike (with training wheels) and did great. She had some trouble braking and not braking, but in general did super. Miranda, still figuring out the tricycle pedals, also did pretty damn good. We went out again to ride and all three did even better than yesterday. Sure...Eli had to crash into the wall a couple times when she forgot about braking, and Parker had his worst fall yet ("I just wanted to go over that bump next to that pole, mom!"), but they all did wonderful.

I don't know, when I saw Eli crash into the fence today she seemed to like it. Big smile on her face and I heard her laugh. I think you have the start of a daredevil on your hands...
