Matt was 4 when we got him his first
bike. It was a present for his birthday.
Matt was in love the
moment he first laid eyes on his new bike. He's had a little red bike with
stabilisers (those thing that keeps the balance?). It
was pretty fancy. I was so exicited and wanted him to ride it. Well John was checking if he could
ride without help. Turn out that he needed some help (grin). John
taught him how to ride that bike and thankfully he had lots of patience!
I remember looking through
the eyes of an excited little boy; remember the huge grin on
his face when he saw it for the first time. It was a happy moment for the
family. I find myself continuously yelling out reminders. Things like
"watch where you're going!", and "pedal with your feet",
and "look where you're going", and "turn", and "look
up!", and "brake, brake, BRAKE!!!” Not to mention you have to chase
little Matthew. Mr. Biker Boy was unstoppable.
Oh Matt’s all grown up
now, yet that little red bike never fails to put a smile on his face whenever
he sees it quietly parked on its own space in the garage.
