Both kids hopped on their new bikes last week and instantly knew how to ride. The last few summers haven’t been as successful. I would push and push and the kids would go a few feet before wiping out. I tried new methods to teach kids and nothing worked.

This year they just got on the bike and away they went.

I asked Matthew how he learned so quick. He said, “I saw Elise get on her bike and I knew I could do better than her.”

Note to self: Start chore competition.
