No More Training Wheels!

We had something fun, amazing and exciting happen at our house a couple weekends ago. James taught Lincoln to ride a bike with no training wheels! James told me his was going to take Lincoln's training wheels off. I told him, 'good luck. Make sure Linc has on his helmet.' Not even 5 minutes later James yelled in from the garage, 'Jame, if you wanna take pictures, nows your chance - he's already doing it!'. I of course raced outside and started watching in awe how easy it was for Lincoln to pick up how to balance and peddle and watch himself on his bike. He is such a smart, fast learner! 3 years old still seems young to me to be riding a big boy bike - but then again - it's Lincoln - he surprises us daily.

The other day I was with the boys on a walk. A police officer stopped us and told Lincoln how happy he was for making a smart choice by wearing his helmet while he rides his bike. Lincoln was given a police badge and a Subway gift card for a free meal. Lincoln was happy, and I was of course proud. We took Lincoln out to dinner that night so he could cash in his free meal. He was beaming all night.
