Nice trail run up the Logan River Trail with the kids on their bikes. Three weeks ago, Shelby my 8 year old had a hard time biking over a few blocks, mostly I think because of balance and just being afraid of the trail. Last week she did the five mile trail with about half of it supported by me running along side her pushing her along. Today she killed the whole trail up and down.
At the end she said, "Dad I have been taking my scooter with my friends at mom's whenever we all went on rides because they were so much better than me and I was embarrassed about the bike. This week I lived life with my friends up front!" I can't think of a better feeling than changing my daughter's life in that one simple way this Spring. Trumps everything. |
