And He Rides



At Papa's house the little man has a walking bike.  A bike with no pedals.  He could ride it all the way down the driveway with his feet up. So he had the balance down pat.  He was ready to ride a real bike without training wheels.  But then Papa got sick.  And that was the end of that.
He had a bike at our place, but he would not ride it.  I think there was something off about it.  He would only ride Sissy's bike.  So he didn't show any interest in taking that next step.  Once we got our bikes back from Papa's house he started riding again.  The neighbor boy has a small bike with no training wheels.  He left it laying on the sidewalk.  Connor picked it up.  I told him to ride.  Gave him a push and ran beside him as he pedaled and rode.  And so he rides.  Without training wheels.  Time to take them off his bike.
