RIDE ON!!!!

Avi has done it....She has mastered the art of riding a bike!!....I know, some may say she's a late bloomer...But, this is a HUGE step for my Cute, little timid, won't even go down a slide until I'm 4 years old, Girl! She just isn't the athletic type.
It's weird....Give her a SNAKE and she'll hold and play with it for hours (EWwwww!)....Ask her to go down a slide, and her world comes crashing down!
(I only compare the snake, because that is my BIGGEST fear!)
She has had a Big Girl Bike since she was 4 years old....But she refuses to ride it...She says it's TOO BIG...So, she learned how to ride a bike with her little mini one.
She's not Stupid....It is much closer to the ground in case she falls!

THE RELEASE......

THE CRASH!!!

THE TEARS!!!.....!!!!!......!!!!!

BALANCE....BALANCE....

.......AND SHE'S OFF!!!.......


Since Avi is in year round school and her track changed, she only had 3 weeks of Summer to enjoy. She made it her goal to learn how to ride her bike.....Sadly we were really busy and never had the chance to get out the bikes too often.
So, the day before school started she sadly said she never met her Bike goal....Which made us feel like TERRIBLE parents...Since we are the ones that held her back from her goal.
So, that night Andy came home early from work so they could work on riding her bike.
Miraculously just 30 minutes into it, a couple dented garbage cans and just a few tears later....She was riding her little bike like a PRO!!

....RIDE ON AVE!!
