NO WHEELS!

Dear Abby,
So, your cousin Caroline offered you her old bike.  Now this 'old' bike isn't really old, she just grew like no other AND it's a really nice bike, with gear changes and everything.  More importantly, it's a bike with no training wheels.  I didn't want to take the bike if you couldn't ride it.  So, one afternoon, when Mimi happened to be in town, we decided to give the no training wheels a go.  Let me just say, you had NO problems with it!!  You hopped on that bike and within in 5 minutes, you were riding all by yourself.  We were SOOOO proud (and impressed) at how easily it came to you.  And you were sold.  You LOVED riding the bike with no wheels.  The only problem was you had to have me get you started.  Well, the next day while Kate was napping, we tried it with just you starting on your own. Wa-lah! Off you went!  Here's a video of that.  We have more video of you first learning and Mimi took picture, so maybe I can get those one day.  For now, here you are on your little bike! 

That next weekend Caroline brought you her bike and you have not gotten off of it! You ask every day if you can ride your bike and you have gotten so good with it.
So impressed girly!!  Love you and your bike skills!
