2 Wheels

Emily has been working her way up to losing the training wheels on her bike for a while now.  We would go out to play and she would have me take them off her bike, I would help her ride back and forth on the driveway a couple times, then she would ask to have them back on.  She has recently developed a fear of trying new things (which is worlds different than the Emily I knew 6 months ago who would try anything) so this slow process helped her ease into riding with just two wheels.  And about two weeks ago, the training wheels came off for good!  She is so proud of herself!  She has decided that she wants to ask Santa for a Minnie Mouse bike with handlebar streamers, a basket, and no training wheels for Christmas.
