So, I began praying for God to provide a bike for Andrew. All little boys remember learning to ride a bike and I wanted my firstborn to have that experience, too. If God chose otherwise, I prayed that an opportunity would arise where he could spend some time with someone who did have a bike so he could ride from time to time.
We have some sweet friends who are moving next week to Tennessee and they gave us a call last weekend to tell us that they had a good number of items they didn't want to take with them to Tennessee. They are decluttering (just as I am) and decided to dump their clutter on me...I'll take it! The first question she asked was, "Do the boys have a need for a bike without training wheels?". I gasped. Literally. I replied with a quick and high pitched, "Yes!" which caused my friend to wonder why I was so excited. I told her that we had prayed for a bike to come Andrew's way and she was the means that God chose to provide it for us.

So....Mitch has spent a good bit of time trying to teach Andrew to balance on the new bike with no training wheels. I am so proud
