Ditch those training wheels, Gabrielle!

That's right, Gabrielle is now 2-wheeling! Last weekend she learned to ride without the safety net. It was a smooth learning process in the safety department, but the courage department needed a little work. Our cheers were punctuated with screams of fear from Gabrielle. She also cried a little bit. All this took place after she had learned to ride, and as she was riding. Perhaps all those years of injury (concussion, broken collar bone, head wound, stitched hand, etc.) did more damage to her psyche than her body. Regardless, we are proud of her! To celebrate this milestone, Daddy rode with Gabrielle and Emily to Dairy Queen to get an ice cream. Since Greg's bike has two flat tires, he rode my bike and I drove in the car!
