I'm originally from Washington state where I had hoped to return after college, but it wasn't meant to be (at least not yet). I came all the way to BYU in Utah to get my education and ended up finding Nathan, my husband, who is also from my hometown, and who I dated in high school. Why I had to come all this way beats me. I did finish my degree in Early childhood education in April 2000, however, we decided to start a family rather than have me teach. Kirsten was born in Feb. 2001, then Zachary in Nov. of 2002 and Caleb in Sept. 2006. Now my life is my family and my full time- lifetime job is wife and mother.
On Friday, October 17,2008 Kirsten tried once again and succeeded to ride her bike unassisted by me or training wheels. Hurray Kirsten! We knew you could do it and now so do you. Zach, wanting to be like his sister, tried to ride solo too, but still needs some more practice. Maybe next time. Caleb had fun observing. At one point he too had to have a helmet on, but watched from his stroller. Both kids insisted that it was easier to ride in the street, which it is. However, this goes against all of my mommy rules to play in the street. Oh, well, I guess you have to let them grow up eventually.
