Caroline Rides a Two-Wheeler! Lives to Tell About It!

So, when your first three and one half years of life include the following:

1. At least six random spills down both sets of stairs (2006-present);

2. Biting through your lip on a Michigan vacation (2006) [Editor's Note: We mean all the way through the lip];

3. Going "Rocky Balboa" to your left eye on the corner of the dining room hutch (2009);

4. Doing a "header" into the air-hockey table at Uncle Bill's house and splitting your lower lip open (2009); and,

5. Falling "face-first" into the floor from the top of Henry's bunk bed and "Holmanizing" your baby teeth.

You earn a reputation for danger.

A well-deserved reputation for danger.

And how does one put on a new layer of danger and risk to their already risky repertoire?

Start by riding a two-wheel bike at age 3! That's how.




(Here's Caroline scoffing at danger)

Even Josie thinks Caroline's appetite for risk is ridiculous.

Okay, maybe not.

That little kid is too cute to form opinions, even if she looks like she's sporting the hairstyle from John Belushi's Samurai Delicatessen.

Josephine, is that you?


Seriously though, we're extremely proud of Super Caroline! She's the oldest 3 year old we know.

I just wish she'd let me have more moments like this one below.

This is the most wonderfful and thrilling moment in this little girls life. She has been defying danger and coming through alot of things. Have you heard pushing the envelope? I am so proud and happy for Caroline.

Stupid Bike!!! I believe I heard that uttered when she fell in the street. However, she picked that stupid bike up and continued to ride it down the street. Great job Caroline, keep up the good work. She is the most determined little girl that I know. Love you sweetie, Nana
