Sometimes you gotta let go!

Marissa just learned how to ride her bike without training wheels. Ty took her out and ran after her for nearly 2 hours, holding on to the back of her seat the entire time. He came huffing and puffing inside declaring it my turn to run after her. Ha! I can't run that long OR that fast. I could tell Missy was starting to get it, so I ran for a few seconds then said, "I'm letting go", and gave her a good shove forward, and she did it!! After about 30 minutes, she was all over the place, and has been ever since. Our street is not busy at all, and there are lots of new sidewalks to ride on. She even told me "Mom, riding a bike without training wheels is funner than watching a movie."
