She can ride on two wheels

Ashley can ride a bike without training wheels! We are all so excited for her. She’s wanted to do this for months and has been trying, but she’s been scared. We knew she could do it, if she got enough confidence in herself and her abilities. And this weekend, she did it. At first, we needed to help her get going, but then she figured that out too. We are working on going around corners and bumpy paths. She fell on the way to school this morning, but I made sure she was wearing pants on the way, so she didn’t skin her knees. Her friend, Kathleen, gave her a card congratulating her on riding her bike without training wheels and Ashley just beamed.
