no more training wheels

We took the girls training wheels off today and there was varying degrees of success. Autumn took to it like it was no body's business. The very first time she went about 30 feet. We were doing the practice on grass which slows you down but makes the falls less traumatic and more likely to take a second go. Lexi did fairly well in short spurts and Lauren did one 5 foot attempt fell over dramatically and grabbed her knee as if the grass had poked a billion holes.

In the end, over lunch, Lexi had some sage advice for the others: "the more faster you go, the more lesser you tip".
