Summertime

I know for most people, summer is drawing to a close, but for me, since I'm homeschooling my kiddos this year, I like to think my summer is going to last until it gets cold again.
I was recently given a bike by one of my dearest friends, so one of my goals of my extended summer is to teach the little ones how to ride a bike. Since we live on the second floor of an apartment building, I have to honestly say that teaching them has not been on my mind much at all.
I remember my sister and I riding our bikes up and down the street, around the block, sometimes around 2 blocks, all through the yard and driveway, at the beach, and the list goes on and on. I'm sure my hubby can tell you the same stories, however, as apartment bound adults (so far) our children have not had those opportunities.
So, today it begins, the living room will be cleared out and the one bike with training wheels will be brought inside, and so begins the fun.
