For the first time ever, we took the training wheels off of Rebecca's bicycle today. It was rough going as she tried to get a sense of balance and coordination, but she seemed to have a good attitude and didn't get too flustered. I tried to motivate her by telling her all her friends are able to ride a two-wheeler, and she better keep up or she might find herself in an embarrassing situation if they invite her bike riding one day and she can't keep up. I don't know if this a good tactic, but I'm thinking peer pressure can sometimes be a good thing, right?
So my goal is to keep it at, and have her riding on her own by the end of the summer. It's my job as a Dad to teach her these things, and if I don't do it, nobody will. This is a big rite of passage, not just for Rebecca, but for me as well.
