The Perils of Parenting and Other Ponderings - Hannah Can Ride a Two-Wheeler!!!

Hannah Can Ride a Two-Wheeler!!!

We go camping every August and the big deal there is getting to spend nearly the whole week on a bicycle. For the kids anyway. Not me. I don't even own a bike! LOL! My favorite part of camp is visiting with my friends and spending a lot of time making memories with my family! But that is not what this entry is about!

One day Hannah suddenly decided that she would like to learn to ride her bike without the training wheels at Family Camp this year. Ian immediately decided that their is no time like the present. So he took her outside and took the training wheels off her bike and asked Kaitlyn to document it all with my camera. All of this was going on while I was inside (doing laundry, cooking or blogging! ) So I was glad Kait had documented the event!

And before you send the safety police to get me... YES, I know her helmet is too loose. She was actually wearing the wrong one and that problem has since been remedied!

Actually, she idd not know the training wheels were off! Ian kind of tricked her! She was pretty excited when she saw the video of it herself. I did not post the video b/c for some reason it takes like an hour to upload a 2 minute video. I must be doing something wrong.

It was funny though, that without coaching, at the end of the ride Ian said, "So Hannah, now you can ride a two-wheeler. What are you going to do next?" She answered, "Go to Disneyland?"

She must have seen the post game interview after the SuperBowl or something!

And yes, she did say it like it was a question! The question mark is not a typo! LOL!

I am sorry my blog entries have been so few and far between. I'll try to do a bit better! :)

My name is Christina. I am 38 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 18 years! My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (16), Jordan (14 next month), Ian (12.5), and Noah (10 next month)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (8 in September) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 12th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
