As a working mom I always fear I will miss the big milestones in my offspring's lives. Like their first step, or their first word, or their first time to use glitter without prompting. You know. The really really big time, important stuff. I have feared missing Middle Twerp learning to ride a bike. So I created a new rule - no bike riding unless I as present. It all was going fine until I the injustice of my rule spread throughout the neighborhood -- then the warriors wanted to come talk to Chief Country Girl.
The planned and strategized. I was putty in their hands. 
So I cried UNCLE UNCLE- Let the bike riding commence. 
And lo and behold - it happened. 
Right before my eyes --
My first born son was riding a bike. I heard Sunrise, Sunset play in the background and I started to get misty eyed and then....
Oh Lord. This was all because he was trying to pop a wheelie.
A wheelie? Seriously?
Ah -- watch out......
Why did I birth from my womb a dare devil that has no fear? Where does he get this from? Heavens to Betsy. Where is Baby Twerp?
Baby Twerp? What are you doing? 
He was also looking for some bubble wrap to seal the deal and all. 
But I think we will be okay until the training wheels come off. Bless his Bubble Boy Little Heart.

Those goggles are stinkin' hilarious! He looks like a character straight out of a classic 80's coming of age movie. The angst ridden outsider determined to pedal to the beat of his own drum.
All that BT needs is a cape! LOL! Too cute!
I agree with Linda, both boys need super hero capes.

How stinking cute all of your kids are. With boys bike riding can be dangerous and I love the way they are all "suited up" for it. LOL.
