From Four Wheels to Two

David approached us Sunday evening, asking for us to teach him how to ride his bike without training wheels. We practiced a bit, and he would go three or four yards before putting his feet down. He really was doing well for his first attempt.
Then, yesterday, Kris worked with him a bit more. He is a brave boy, and is not too worried about doing it perfectly or not falling. He's really willing to give it a try.
Then today, he asked for permission to ride in the street, and I told him he could. As I watched him start off with our neighbor Gene's small bike, I was stunned. He rode effortlessly up and down the street, starting on his own and turning easily. Did David really do this for the first time on Sunday? Kris and I think he's done a superb job trying and learning and just going for it!








We're proud of you, David! May you work hard on all your pursuits, in Christ's name and for His kingdom!
