Well, happy to say that Luke is back on the bicycle. He wanted to ride his new bike every day the first week we got it, and then out of nowhere he refused to ride saying he didn't like his bike. Me, being the sympathetic mother that I am, forced him to ride his bike around the corner, to which he screamed in terror and cried the whole time saying, "I'm gonna fall, I'm going too fast" over and over. He didn't understand it's impossible to fall if you're not even pedaling and you have training wheels! Well, after 2 days of forced bicycle riding (who says only trained clinical psychologists are experts in exposure therapy!), with no falls mind you, he suddenly exclaimed that he did like his bike after all and have had 2 days of successful, happy bike riding at normal speeds. Yeah!!!
By the way, I promise birthday and soccer pictures are coming!
