Ethan Riding a Bike

May 28, 2012
Ethan learns to ride a bike in one day.

Ethan learned how to ride a bike.  It was pretty entertaining how it all happened.

First Hadlie (a girl in our neighborhood) learned how to ride a bike.  The same day Chase wanted his training wheels off and takes off riding.  Then at some point Hadlie and Chase ride together over to Koby's house.  Then Koby insists on his training wheels being taken off.  Then in a big line one day here comes Hadlie, Chase, Koby and Tyson.  Ethan already decided that he was going to ride when he was 5.  Yet after seeing all of his friends who were 4 years old.  He marched right up to Chad and asked for his training wheels to be taken off.

Chad did a great job teaching Ethan.  Practicing on the grass first and then running along side him on the side walk.  A few days later.  (Since he was sick and had to stay inside for awhile.)  He asked me to come out and help him.  I did come outside and he asked me to push him.  I kindly told him that I don't push.  He can start himself and stop himself.  He looked at me and I reassured him he could do it.  I told him to push along with his feet until he gets his balance and then put his feet up and ride.  He picked that up so quick.  He kept telling people that Daddy taught how to ride but Mommy taught him the best part how to start and stop.

Thanks for including me Ethan but it was all your Daddy!
