When you're ready, you're just ready.

Given that we haven't had much chance for Caleb to learn to ride his bike without training wheels, we didn't expect the learning process to be anything but arduous. Caleb finally expressed interest about 3 wks ago, and Scott removed the training wheels. Caleb was so tentative that Scott had to grip the bike seat tightly the entire time.

About a week and a half later, Caleb wanted to try again, but the timing wasn't great for Scott to be able (or willing) to help. Yet, Scott decided to set him up on his bike across the street and let him give it a go. His plan (funny enough) was to avoid walking alongside by just giving him one good push, let him fall into the grass and get frustrated, and Scott would call it a day.

So he did. And I was ready with my camera.
