I was returning home this week from one of my training runs, and as I rounded the corner and headed down the street towards our home, our youngest daughter came into full view. She was riding without training wheels – a first for me to see – and she was smiling from ear-to-ear.
As you can imagine, the moment I saw Kennedy pedaling her bike towards me, I broke out into my own ear-to-ear smile.
To top it off, Kennedy had lost her second tooth – this one the upper front and quite noticeable with a huge grin – and ironically she lost her tooth the same day she learned to ride without training wheels.
What a sight. Simply priceless!
Any proud Dad who has experienced this sight, and many other “firsts” with their children, undoubtedly can relate.
There are not too many things in life I enjoy more than being a father and sharing in our kid’s excitement and joy. It’s during those times that life seems to stand still and nothing matters but that moment with our kids.
