One on Two

When my parents were here I asked my mom to work with Ryan on his bike riding.  He refused to try with me.  I knew he could go on two wheels, but he would whine and whine anytime I suggested he try.  I was so frustrated hearing him say, "I...I...I..CAANNN'T".  So frustrating.

With Grandma's help, he took off.  He learned how to get started all by himself, too.  When I got home from work on Thursday I found this note:

How cute is that?  

On Saturday, I took him out so he could show me his skills.  It was so much fun watching ride so confidently, but he took a HUGE spill while being distracted by his sister.  After 3 bandages and loads of drama, I was worried he might not want to try again.  

But on Sunday, he biked all the way around Green Lake (3.5 miles) all by himself.  We are so proud of him.
