And He is Off {MW rides a Bike}

Kids.
They are so interesting to watch. No wonder researchers study and study them. Each is their very own anomaly. I currently have two research subjects of my own and they each have produced such varying results. Maybe it is a girl/boy thing or maybe it is just a human thing--who knows.

Take MW he is 4.5 yo.
He just learned to pedal this bike, well any bike for that matter 3 weeks ago.



Then there is Sass, at the exact same age she was off for the races sans training wheels. She had spent the previous summer on training wheels with zero desire to change.

Back to MW. He is kind of a fearful kid. He just doesn't like to be out of control...hmmm. I am not sure why that sounds so familiar...anyway, daddy pushed him one day to do it and said we weren't going in until he tried.



Well, that only took 3 minutes and he was off! He couldn't believe how much fun this was.


Now he begs daily for walks and bike rides and if the morning time allows we go. We have both really enjoyed our walks and I am so impressed how far he can ride. The first few days though you weren't allowed to talk to him because he was "concentrating." HA!




Now he is golden and can talk and ride!! Watch out for Mr. big shot.

We take some pretty long walks and I got curious one day and figured there has to be an app for that! And of course there was MAP MY WALK. I downloaded it mid walk and found out we walked a little over 2 miles!! Not too shabby little buddy.
However, you have to have a little rest break at every bench, that is just silly not too.

And that is how we roll here.  {Pun intended}
We do things nice and slow and then the rest is history.
