He rides a bike!

 
If you would have told me the first time we put Armands on a bike that he would be riding before he left us, I wouldn't have believed you.  Armands has weak muscles, especially on his right side, that were making coordination difficult with pedaling.  I can't believe how much he has improved over the past few weeks.  He has gained strength, and I think he even walks a little taller now.  After the first day of Matt teaching him to ride a bike, he would go out on his own and coast up and down the driveway.  I thought that was all he would do.  Then, one day, he just started pedaling and yesterday, he spent probably an hour outside riding around on the driveway and through the yard!  I am so proud of his determination!
