Bike Riding

We had to go helmet shopping because Ava outgrew the one she had for the past two years. Ava was happy to get back on her bike.
She is very determined to learn to ride her bike without training wheels. I wouldn't be surprised if she is by the end of the summer. When she is determined to do something, she usually doesn't give up. Last fall she was determined to tie her own shoes so she practiced for days until she figured it out. It was the same with hanging upside down on the monkey bars, floating in the pool and doing forward flips. The only thing that she hasn't been able to do that she has been trying for quite awhile, is whistling. She'll figure it out.

Keep up the hard work Ava! You'll figure it out before you know it. Learning is half the fun!

Way to be persistent. That is the way to be. I'm a go getter too. You'll be riding without those training wheels in no time!
