Today Jared learned to ride his bike at Grandma Brenda's house. I had my camera out and challenged him to just have a go. First time down the slope he peddled with no help at all and I caught it on camera, I got quite emotional. The determination to succeed and to please was inspirational. I also (probably inappropriatly) triumphed when he fell off his bike. Watching him get back on his bike and not letting the falls deter him. Snapping away I felt I had captured a moment in time that was precious beyond words. I think because I see in his spirit the determination that will carry him through life and makes me think "that boy is going to be just fine!" :)

What wonderful news. Tell Jared we are really proud of him. To say we liked your comments is an understatement, he is a dear little boy and we too think he will be just fine. Give him our love and love to you all.
Safe journey home and also to Herts John.

WOW! You caught it. I'm so happy for you. I didn't catch those first few moments but it is inspirational to relive my own 1st bike ride.
