go buddy go! i know my husband took the training wheels of my youngest’s Little Pony bike and i’m not sure how i feel about that one. it’s different with boys. it’s like a right of passage. maybe it’s me, but with my princess it’s just one step too fast. sigh…
May 4, 2006-my Jessica learned how to ride her bike. What an incredible rush to see your child take off on two wheels. Such independence! Congratulations Cole on your incredible accomplishment! Before your mom and dad know it-you will be back on 4 wheels driving off into the sunset. Enjoy the wind on your face and as my daughter asked, ” will the bugs hit my face and helmet like they do the windshield in the car?”
We’re working on that very same thing here also with my 6 yo ds- he’s not too sure about it though… it’s scary! Congrats Cole, what a huge accomplishment little dude! 😀
What a great picture – especially including your huband, running right along side, like a good dad. Congrats, Cole, and so glad you have the picture that tells it all! ~Tanya
YAY!!! How freakin’ cool!! So excited for Cole and his upcoming spring and summer as a man with wheels!!
My oldest still isn’t ready for this but I look forward to one day getting an amazing photo like this!! I love seeing Dan in the backgroud so focused on Cole on his bike! AWESOME!!
That’s pure magic, what an achievement.Well done Cole
My eldest son turned 8 at the begining of December and he has not yet managed to loose those training wheels.
We are trying not to make it any sort of big deal, when he is ready he will do it, but peer presure is tough when you are 8 and he is getting to the point where he would rather not ride the bike at all.
That is totally awesome! My son just learned this past Wednesday and is already tooling around like a superstar. I caught him trying to do it with one hand yesterday. WAY TO GO!!!
Heck yes that’s a big deal! Way to go Coley! Love it… and I like the slightly blurry pic. I can see you trying to snap the pic and they buzzed by you. Awesome.
I like the tweaked color. I don’t think it’s crappy at all. It has a nostalgic look to it and arn’t those the feelings that emerge from riding bikes? Awesome!
Vicki O says
That *is* a big deal!!! WTG, Cole!!!

Hell yeah, that’s a big deal! I was wondering what age kids did that. That’s awesome! Too cool.
I love seeing that you call him Coley. I have a Cole who got nicknamed Coley too. Coleys are cool.

I love that picture.
Off topic, a bit, but I think you’ll forgive me when you read this lovely remembrance of the former Crowded House drummer. Just had to share.
