Can I Go Ride My Bike?


We've been hearing this a lot over the last few days.

Finally, after 5 years of trying, a broken elbow and some major fear.... Ethan has learned to ride a bike! He had convinced himself that he just couldn't do it and then broke his elbow trying. After that incident two years ago, he was genuinely afraid to get back on it.

About two weeks ago, we were at our pastor's house playing a game and the kids were outside. Apparently, one of their boys helped him practice on their bike and, well, here are the results.

(Never mind the garage, it's in serious need of a paint job!)

Whooooo hooo!! Great job!! My daughter took forever to learn to ride because after fall number one she refused to try again! I had to bribe her to get back on!
