Ellie has always been a very determined child with an I can and I will attitude. When she was three she decided she wanted to learn to blow bubbles with gum. . .she practiced until she learned, which didn't take long.
She did the same thing with whistling. . .
She got heeley's for her birthday and she practiced until she got it perfect.
Well today she decided she was going to learn something new... and she learned it in a matter of 10 minutes...
She had told me that the neighbor girl who is 5 months older than her could now ride a bike with only two wheels. I told her she could to, so when we came home, I took off the training wheels and she was riding like pro in about 10 minutes! She thought she wanted to at the end of the summer last year but when we took the training wheels off she would barely try. This time once she learned that M could do it she was dertermined not to be out done.
She's ONLY 5!!
And don't you just love her outfits?

Wow! That's so cool! Ash is still working on learning to pedal and get her bike WITH training wheels to move more than a few inches,lol, but I'm in no hurry for her to go riding off without me anyway, haha.
