Look closely, we have taken off her training wheels!
We decided to try to teach Elli to ride without training wheels. She was totally against it a few days ago, but got excited about it tonight. 
Brent and I took turns holding onto her while she practiced. I do not see her taking off on her own in the next day, but she is at least learning to balance more. Also, at the beginning of the summer, it was a fight just to get her ride her bike. I'd say she has grown, a lot!A couple of stories:
1. On Monday, I had training all day at Cedarville and actually didn't see Elli at all that day until 8:30 at night. When I was putting her to bed she said to me, "Mommy, I was with you all day." I asked her what she meant, she replied, "I could hear your song." I asked what song that was and she said it was the song I sing to her each night, since she was a baby. "I want to hold you, I want to kiss you, I want to hug you, because I love you!"
2. Elli came into the bathroom to see me while I was getting ready and she had her big horse with her. She said to me, "Hi Mommy. I rode my Royal Steve all the way here." hehehe
3. We have been reading the Old Testament and I think she is paying attention. The other day while playing, she was pretending she had leprosy!
