Seminal Moment II

I have completely fulfilled one of my roles as a Dad today. Samwise rode his bike successfully for the first time, with no stabilisers! Requiring some support on starting off at first, and a little wobbly, but after a bit of practice he was starting off by himself and pedalling up and down the street. Lamp-posts, walls and hedges acted as boy/bike magnets, but luckily he can use the brakes OK. I'm not allowed to take any photos until he's "really good at it".
This is the second time that I've taught a son to ride a bike. At last my work is done....What - you mean there's more things they need to know? :)
