Grady Rides Without Training Wheels

Today, was a beautiful day, and Grady and I had fun just playing outside together. I asked Grady if he'd like to try riding his bike without training wheels, and he said with enthusiasm and confidence, "Yeah". So, I removed the training wheels, and we set out to "practice". My expectations would be lots of falling, trying and pep talks from dad. To my delight, Grady took off without me. I tried to keep up as the good dad and stay with him, but Grady took charge and rode his bike like he'd been doing it for the last couple of years.


Grady rode off into the sunlight like a scene from a movie

He was so proud and he couldn't wait to show Grant.

Here is a video from my cell phone.

Way to go Grady!!! What a great bike rider you are! I think your daddy could have taken those training wheels off a long time ago.
