Rite of Passage

Look who just ditched the training wheels! Jacob came to me yesterday afternoon begging me to take them off his bike. I gave him a mini-lecture entitled "Please Wait till Dad Gets Home," but he was undeterred. So I readied the bandaids, checked helmet, knee and elbow pads, gave him a few unsolicited tips on turning and speed, and held my breath. And he took off down the sidewalk as if he had been doing this for years.
Without so much as a wobble.
