School’s winding down for the year, just in time for me to busy myself with the gardens and some home-improvement plans we have for the summer. And as soon as I step OUT of the learning picture, all of a sudden our kids can ride two-wheelers with no training wheels! In one afternoon of no-help-from-me (other than “you’ve gotta stay balanced, like you do on your scooters” – as I edge our front garden beds), they’e taking off on their own!

God bless ‘em for figuring it out on the same day. Less tears that way…

Less than 1 week later, they’re racing around our court circle.

Why am I here again?

Oh yeah… to hold the video camera. That’s right…
