This is the face of determination. I mentioned recently that she had decided to learn to ride without training wheels. She came to us on that day and decided there were no more excuses on our part. So Andy helped her that one day and she did well. He has been unable to help her since. She decided the other day she didn't need her Daddy to teach her. She was going to do it on her own. Our backyard is paved with uneven stones, it goes in a fairly tight circle, her tires were flat, and she was wearing flip flops. That's four strikes! None of those things stopped her! Well, the pavers did a time or two, and the bushes, and the grass. Her determination was paid for in tears, but she did it! She taught herself to ride all by herself! We are so proud of you Emma!
(Oh, and we did pump up her tires and she put on regular shoes. It was cake after that!)
