These are well deserved and welcomed injuries that come with the thrill of riding a big girl, two wheeler bike.
She may not be riding the scooter in the picture and she may even be naked, but I will tell you that she can cruise! When Rieley and Morgan got their big scooters, Leyton got their three wheeler scooters. Three wheels just doesn't cut it for a 2 1/2 year old. Now that her sisters ride two wheeler bikes she wants to ride their two wheeler scooters. I think that kids are a lot more capable than I give them credit for.
What a Pro!!! Our 7 year old neigbor taught Morgan how to ride her bike. Rieley had learned by simply jumping on another neighbors bike. She had no problem. Morgan was really wobbly and we thought that we would wait until she was a little more stable. One week later I glance out the window to see Morgan fly by on a two wheel bike followed by her friend, Erin frantically running after her. She did pretty well except the bike was too tall and she couldn't stop. That would explain why she shot out in to the road in front of our house. We are very grateful that there were no cars. So, now they can both ride and they have motivated three other kids in the neighborhood to say goodbye to training wheels.
I know they aren't wearing helmets. I just wanted to take a picture of them before they were already on ten speeds. In fact, Rieley was grounded from her bike on this day for being too sassy and rude. Anyway, so we are safe and we make them wear helmets.
