A small break from packing.

It's crunch time, while we don't have a lot of packing left to do, we do still have some. I'll post something about the packing later. This is about the break Mike and I took..

Some time last summer Mike really wanted the training wheels off his bike. Cam and I argued with him about it, that he wasn't ready to take them off. After all he still fell off with the training wheels. In the end we removed them. Sense then he's been afraid to even try to ride it. Until last week.

Last week he started trying again. With little luck, I think we're being a lot nicer to him then my Dad was to me. When I learned to ride he set me on a bike told me to pedal and pushed me down a hill. I figured it out quick, then hit a tree.

Anyway, Mike's been trying most every day for the last week or so. Monday he managed to ride a few feet, with my running behind holding my hand to the side so he wouldn't fall.

Today on the other hand, while I was working in the garage cleaning up some stuff he got the bike out and started practicing: Once he got over the fear of falling off he he's doing a lot better. Though I think we need to get him knee pads and a helmet.
