The Unofficial End of Summer

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Well, the thermometer may say that it will continue to be warm, but the neighborhood pool is closing up and school starts tomorrow. That means that summer, for all intents and purposes, is over.

IMG_2105-1.JPGSo, it was with a bit of shock that Will suddenly declared yesterday that he wanted to go out and ride his bike. Yes, that same bike that we couldn’t convince him to ride all summer. Go figure. So after filling up the tires with air and giving Will some quick instructions on pushing the pedals and using the hand brake (instead of the feet) to slow down the bike, he was suddenly off. And he wasn’t too bad, not even complaining too much on the uphill before our driveway.

So, now we’ve got (I hope) a kid who will get more and more into his bike. He’s still a bit skittish when cars are coming, but we’ll get him through it all. We’re just excited that he’s showing interest in riding his bike.

And they had a professional photographer take some photos at 2 weeks. Some of the better photos are here on the photographer’s blog. (And not to embarrass Dena too much, but she also had some photos back in July that are very beautiful.)
