Contentment

Mary Hannah taught herself how to ride a bike this past month. This picture shows her riding the little bike, but she has moved onto a bigger bike now. She rides around and around the house. It's really cute. She's so active. She can't wait every morning to get outside to start making her rounds.
Since Ballerina Rosie was 3 when she learned, I thought maybe Babycakes would like to learn now too, so she could ride like her big sisters (and brother).
So, I asked her "Babycakes, do you want to learn how to ride a bike, Mama can help you?"
Babycakes responded so matter of factly, "I already know how to ride bike." Me: "You do?"


Babycakes: "Yeah, you know the orange one with the roof on so I won't get rained on?"




I think I've learned this week from my littles.
I've learned that if they want to learn something, they will, on their own.
If they don't want to learn something new, they probably don't need to.
