Next time you see Eli, please ask him about his bike. I took him out on Tuesday with his training wheels still firmly in place. I couldn't figure out how to transition him away from them, and he was pretty scared. He seems to be on the late end of learning to ride his bike from what I have observed with his friends and other kids in the neighborhood. So Tuesday I took them off, and we went over and over and over and over trying to get him balanced.
The change in the past 48 hours has been really amazing. He has figured out how to get himself started, and can ride for over a mile without falling off, or getting scared and putting his feet down. I am so very proud of him. More importantly, he is proud of himself, and that makes my heart very happy. :)
