Look Ma! No Training Wheels!

Well, she still needs a bit of practice! But Little Missy has been asking me to take off her training wheels for about a month now...and she actually did it!
Short little spurts but she did it! I had her ride into the grass, so I am sure another week of practicing she will have it down!

Just like she said she could swim without her floatie, she can ride her bike without training wheels. Geez, this child going to give this Ma a heart attack someday!!

There are two short video clip on my blog of her riding!

Thanks, Amy! She never fails to make me stop breathing! Saturday she was hanging and jumping from a six foot tall bar...and kept doing it!
