Two Wheelin'

My grandson Jeff is 3 1/2 years old and he has been riding one of those "Strider" bikes since he was about 1 1/2. My daughter decided it was time for him to move to a pedal bike and pass his "Strider" down to his sister.
She brought Jeff and his new bike over to our house and Grandpa helped him learn to ride his "Two Wheeler".  He did fantastic!!! I don't think I rode a "two wheeler" until I was about 5 or 6.

Today I have a layout of him riding his new bike and I would like to enter it into the challenge over at Sketchabilities.


Here is the sketch:
