It's just like riding a bike...

Like everything else in Bubba's life, things don't necessarily come easy, but with enough confidence and practice (and some accommodations and modifications), almost anything is possible.

Bubba learned to "lose the training wheels" this week after several unsuccessful and frustrating attempts (years) at home. I can't explain the smile on his face as he "launched" today, but I will tell you that I cried as he yelled "I'm doing it! I'm doing it!"

I am so proud of him. YEY BUBBA!!! Aunt Amy is so proud of you! So, after going to 6 bike stores, did you find one?

That's so cool! Congrats to him. This is the year that Sam is going to lose the training wheels too. If it kills me. And him.

This is WAY cool! But you know that.

Being able to ride a bike is freedom, accomplishment, and a natural way of "fitting in", to a kid.

Way to go, Bubba!
