"I Like to Ride my Bicycle, I Like to Ride my Bike"



Blake would not agree to the lyrics of this popular song. We finally forced him to take the training wheels off of his bike this weekend - if we would have waited until he was ready we'd have a 15 year old still using training wheels. As you can tell by the first picture, he didn't take it too well and did nothing but cry even though we never let go and he never fell. Eventually after we got tired of hearing him freak out enough about how he's going to fall and get hurt we did let go and watch him fall, many times - none of which he got hurt. After he realized that even if he did fall he wasn't going to get hurt, he was able to figure it all out. He still has Dad run along side in case he needs help, but he's getting the hang of it.
