I'm so excited!
My M&D bought him the coolest tricycle for his 2nd b'day, a red and chrome Radio Flyer one. He hasn't been able to pedal it, because one leg is much shorter than the other and he wears a splint which means he can't bend his ankle enough. BUT he was IMMENSLEY proud of it and loved being pushed round the park with the handle. But now, he has his new Piedro boots instead of a splint, and I have taken the trike to a cycle hire place in a local park where they specialise in making adjustments, and they are building up one pedal for him.
Cost us £45, but hey....
It's a beautiful afternoon, and I can't wait to see him start to learn to pedal!
Enough MN-ing, off to colect the Trike!Byeeeeee!
