Ethan’s first day riding his bike to school

CIMG1269

Ethan has been seeing his friends Jacob and Brayden occasionally riding their bikes to school and yesterday he decided he wanted to do the same. He didn’t have a helmet and we were running late so I said “not today, but maybe tomorrow.” Well after Dinah’s check-up yesterday, we went to Target and they happened to have some nice looking inexpensive helmets, so we got one for Ethan, one for Tyra and even Jeremy got one. So this morning Ethan was very excited and ready to go to school early, and I got the bike out of the garage, so he could ride to school. He rode all the way to school quite successfully, with me reminding him that when his foot gets to the top it’s time for him to push down with that foot. He did really well and when it came time to pick him up from school he rode all the way home, only falling off once. Thanks to Grandpa and Grandma he has a bike with training wheels, otherwise he would have fallen off a lot more than that 😉
