Look, Ma, No Training Wheels!

Whoo Hoo! She did it! My little baby rode without training wheels! I am writing a book with my boss (don’t get too excited, it’s not exactly a novel, it’s a technical training manual on Adobe Acrobat) and had to do some work over the weekend. Mark decided that it was high time to get those darn training wheels off and Sam was ready to really try. He took Sam over to the tennis court where if she fell it would be on something softer than concrete. We tried last year on the grass but frankly, pedaling on grass is hard and it made the whole process harder than it needed to be. They spent quite a bit of time there but she did it! She really did it! I couldn’t wait to get home so I could see her go. Mark and I are SO SO proud of her! Congratulations, Sam!
Here she is! My big girl!
Mark took so many videos of her and this is her best attempt yet. Kindly ignore the edge of his finger in the shot – the proud dad was too busy watching his girl to concentrate on the screen!
As her reward, Mark took her for ice cream – and to make things even better, her favorite ice cream shop, Vera’s, was open! That girl earned her reward!
