No Training Wheels for Sierra

One Saturday out of the blue Sierra got all excited 
and asked me to take her training wheels off so she
could learn to ride her bike with out them.  We had
tried once before a while back but she was to scared
and not quite ready.  I took them off and held her 
bike running behind her only once and she got it!
Of course I jogged or should I say walked since 
her tires are little and she goes so slow, along side 
of her just to give her the confidence she needed.
but after a few tries she was on her own.  She
tried bailing off while she was still moving a few
times and she crashed a few times but not bad and
was up and at it again. 
Her sisters and some neighbor friends were
very invested in her learning and were cheering
her on and coaching her how to start by herself, 
which she picked up an hour later.  
Brandon had just left to priesthood so when he got
back Sierra was very excited to show her dad
what she had learned while he was gone.
