I was cleaning up today in anticipation of the big birthday party this weekend. I stopped to take some clean pictures and then realized its been ages since I posted the kitchen.
So this is the beach cottage kitchen today. Painting my ugly oak kitchen was the right thing to do even thought I agonized over it for years.
My youngest son has been slow on the uptake of learning how to ride a bike. We have tried and tried. No go.
This summer, I decided that he was going to do it. Period. My mother never learned how to ride a bike and always regretted it. I didn't want that to happen to my kid.
We tried and we tried.
Yup this is how he felt about it.
FINALLY I googled how to teach a kid to ride a bike and came upon an intriguing method that teaches kids without pedals. I ran out to the garage and took the pedals off his bike. YES. We were doing this.
We did this a few times and boom. He had it! Yeah!
This weekend, I upgraded him to the bigger bike with gears and hand brakes. We went for a nice long ride and turned around when we hit the Leslie construction.
