Thankful Thursday- March 21

What am I thankful for this week?  (other than the fact that it is SPRING? even though it doesn't feel like it!  :-))

Yesterday was a "monumental" day for the 4 Kiddos home.  You see, Kiddo #3 asked for his training wheels to be removed, hopped on his bike and took off like a pro!  No wobbling, no falls, no worries.  Love it!  I am very thankful not only for him being able to do it, but for his older brothers who cheered and encouraged him every step of the way. (even "letting" him win a few races)  :-)




And, not to be outdone by her older brother, Kiddo #4 announced that she, too, wanted her training wheels removed.  It wasn't easy for her, since she is 2 years younger, but she showed much perseverance and kept trying until she was able to do it!  She's not riding with the speed and confidence of her brother yet, but she already said that she will go out again tomorrow and keep practicing till she can ride "perfectly!"  I'm very proud and thankful for her, as well!  Kiddo #1 helped her out, holding her steady when needed and Kiddo #2 cheered and encouraged her.  I am so thankful that these boys don't know that they have to act a certain way because they are "teenagers."  They are blessings for whom I am also very thankful.  :-)







What are you thankful for this day?

Just awesome that all the kiddos now can ride without the training wheels! It is great that the older ones cheered on the younger ones too.

For sure to be thankful for.

Glad to see you again this week and thanks for linking up.
