I am about to cry watching this. Silas has the sweetest voice in the world.
"Training wheels." "Yeeeees." "Thuh-ree." I think I watched it 10 times already. Adding to that, he has some serious biking skills!
OK, two things about this video are just not possible: Silas is THREE and riding with no training wheels, and Jeanine looks like she was never even pregnant once, let alone THREE times.
Once again, another amazing, potentially "award winning" video! But I am interested to know HOW LONG does it take you to find the music to accompany these things?!! The music is always absolutely perfect!
Believe it or not, I usually START with the music. With this one I knew I had to use the theme from Pee Wee's Big Adventure (a movie in which Pee Wee's prize possession -- his bike -- is stolen).
As for Silas's "thuh-ree" thing, we've been working with both Luke and Silas on the difference between the "f" sound and the "th" sound. The only way we could figure out how to get them to understand was to make it painfully clear how you use your tongue to make a "th" sound. So ultimately, he's just copying us. :)
Okay- impressive to say the least. I have to say that FINALLY Sydney was next last weekend at age 7- almost 8. Yes, you read that right, 8. :) Thanks for sharing.

Why do I keep crying as I watch Silas, the extremely competent biker?
