Been working with him for like 3 months. Today he just took off down the driveway and didn't fall. I was running behind him like an idiot with my phone recording. My wife came out and started crying. Best day ever man. He's asking to ride again tomorrow. I'm exhausted but so proud right now.
Those are the wins that stick with you forever. Not because of the bike riding itself, but because he trusted you and you were there helping him find the courage. That's the good stuff right there.
Did you get it on video? My kids wanted proof when they hit their milestones. But honestly the best part is knowing you put in those weeks of work for that moment.
This is going straight on the fridge at our house. Such a big moment for him. You crushed the patience part too.
Three months of work paid off! That feeling of watching them just GO is incredible. I still remember that moment with my oldest, you never forget it.
Man that's a huge milestone. The phone video running behind him is peak dad energy. Congrats to your son!
Dude, that feeling is unreal. I remember when my oldest finally got it and just took off. Three months of patience paying off in one perfect moment. Enjoy this one, it goes fast.

Three months is nothing. You stuck with him and he got there. Now he knows he can do hard things. That's the life lesson hiding in the bike riding.
