She did it!

Emily has learned to ride her two-wheel bike! It's been a bit of a struggle trying to motivate her to learn, but she's now done it. We took the kids to Confederation Park and maybe it was the gentle slopes or the long trails or having some friends with us; whatever it was, she rode! Way to go, kiddo!

We went again tonight and she's doing great. Liam now wants to remove his training wheels. Although he's a bit of a speed demon and I think he needs another inch or so before his feet touch the ground completely. Another difference between the boy and the girl. Four years old and wild vs. seven years old and cautious.

Camping

Todd took the kids camping this weekend. I was supposed to go, too, but came down with a cold/flu on Friday. While they were enjoying the great outdoors, I was trying to recover. I'll try again this upcoming weekend.
