[blparent] Big Girl Bike

I did that and thus gab never learned to ride it.  She got too comfortable
with the trike.  The sooner, the better.

Hi.  For those of you with older kids, when did they start riding a
two-wheeled bike with training wheels?  Sarah got a Dora tricycle for her
birthday, and she's happy with that for now, but we were given a two-wheeler
from someone at church.  Another girl in the neighborhood has a two-wheeler,
and she's about six months older than Sarah, but she was riding it last
summer.  Am I being overprotective to think I should keep the two-wheeled
bike in the garage for another year?
