A Bigger Bike

It wasn't long after Colton learned to ride his bike, that he became dissatisfied with it. The bicycle was too small. He wanted a bigger bike. Mommy told him that his little bike was just fine, but that didn't go over too well. Colton tried out his friend Bradley's bigger bike, and sure enough, he did fine. Then Colton tried Keaton's bike ... and once again, he did great. This kid is a born bike rider. So Colton is pretty happy with Keaton's bike ... although Keaton isn't too fond of this arrangement! Now Colton has moved onto trying tricks (legs to one side, or back on the pegs). He always wants to go for rides around the block. Mommy actually took him on a bike ride up to the soccer park (they rode for about 30 minutes) ... now that may have been a little much for Colton. He is SO good about always putting on his helmet. While having a little bike rider stressed Mommy out (especially when she peeks out to see him riding in the street, luckily we are on a fairly safe little cul-de-sac without a lot of traffic). The bike does come in handy, giving an indication which house Colton has stopped at to play. Of course, now that he's mastered the bike, Colton has his eye on the neighbor's electric scooter ...
