One of the downsides of living at the top of a hill in a neighborhood with no sidewalks is that there really is no safe place to ride a scooter or a bike. So poor Brenna has had a bicycle languishing in the garage for a while now that is getting too small. She like the idea of learning to ride but everytime we suggested it, she balked. Two weeks ago we pulled it out and took one training wheel off. No problem - she just leaned a lot! So later we took the other off. She practiced for about an hour and was doing pretty well. Then the rains came and last weekend was a washout. So out the bike came again today and she up and took off just like an old pro! Molly was running behind cheering all the while. I'd like to think it was because she's proud of her big sister but my guess it was more about the deal we made. See we told Brenna that if she learned to ride a 2-wheeler then we'd get her a bigger bike for her birthday and Molly would get this one. So Molly was sharing the joy!!
