Someone in the neighborhood convinced him he had to be 5 in order to take off the training wheels, but I talked him into trying today anyway. I told him that he would be able to ride the trails faster with Grandma this summer with only 2 wheels. Anyhow, his training wheels were so cock-eyed anyway, once I removed them, he just took off. I didn't even need to hold the seat. He still needs to learn how to start himself off and avoid the curbs, but we're getting there.

Charlie's first violin solo
Here's a recording of Charlie's first violin solo. He performed as part of a MYS solo recital. The organization offers several opportunities a year to perform. He was one of the youngest, but he gave a solid performance. He even did well with his bow (which I practiced with him) and acknowledging his accompanist (which I didn't due to modesty, I guess). We were very proud of him. A special shout out to the lady in the back who couldn't stop rattling her plastic bag for 2 minutes - we caught you on tape!!!
