One of the great rites of passage in childhood is learning to ride a bike. Yesterday was the watershed event for Loryn and it was a great day. She was incredibly proud of herself, and it was thrilling for me to be the one to share it with her. Dan taught Taylor, but I got the honors with Loryn. Definitely, one of the real rewards of motherhood. She was pretty amazing actually. It only took a couple of tries before she was off and sailing! She called everyone she knew to spread the good news. She’s a little tentative and nervous, but she is getting better and better. 
Quincy and Fisher cheered us on from the sidelines. They were wonderful and patient cheerleaders.
