It's TWO-WHEEL Time

Lauren and Tyler do not know how to ride a bike without training wheels.

They are currently 9 and 6 years old.

This is unacceptable.

I have decided it is TIME for them to learn to ride a bike.

Today we bought Tyler a bigger bike (for his birthday next week) and he's been practicing riding it with the training wheels.

They will soon come off.

Lauren has had a bigger bike for years but pitches a fit any time she tries to ride it without training wheels.

"It's terrifying," she says.  

Since Matt is infinitely more patient with L's tantrums, I enlisted him as the two-wheel trainer.

He spent a good 30 minutes off and on (in between pitched fits)

and made some serious progress.
