round and round she goes

I knew she could,
But part of me was reluctant to let my baby go!
However, the moment I took the training wheels off she didn't stop
She didn't look back to see where I was
It was like she never had them at all.
She could have those wheels off a couple of months ago,
but her Mommy wasn't ready.

Now when snow could fall any day and stay for months
I decide to let her have the freedom she wants and is ready for
At the end she even knew her bike had to go in the rack now!
My "big" little girl!

Yay!! It's such a proud moment when you don't need training wheels anymore! I like your bike rack, did you make it?

Yeah for your big girl! It's bittersweet seeing our "little ones" become "bigger ones", isn't it? I love that she knew right where to store her bike. I'm showing my husband that bike rack! It's perfect!!

you're giving them wings...and boy is that little one ready to fly! So great when they move up to riding solo! I agree with Kristyn...that bike rack is great. Maybe your honey could do a guest post on how that thing was constructed? hmmmmmmm.....

Sweet! It is rather funny.. My dad growing up & still to this day calls my older sister..."Big-Little Girl" & me Little-Big Girl" So funny! I am dreading the day that Z is able to ride a bike by herself...time goes by to quickly. But congratulations to her!!! Hip Hip Hooray!
