So, this happened about a month ago...

One unseasonably warm February day, we were outside playing and Monkeyman decided he just HAD to ride his bike without the training wheels.  For reasons known only to him, it was imperative that this happen immediately.  He badgered asked Daddy to take them off, but instead, Daddy gave him the socket wrench and showed him how to remove them... so he took his own training wheels off and *poof* now he can ride a bike.  Here he is in action!
