Lleyton has a new bicycle!
Daddy had wanted Lleyton to start learning to pedal, so and gradually cultivated his interest in cycling through a stepped process.
First, Daddy brought out the tricycle that Lleyton was handed down, and accompanied Lleyton for a short pedalling (or rather pushing) session in the garden.
Subsequently, Daddy brought Lleyton to cycle at the East Coast Park. Lleyton sat in a child seat in front of Daddy, as Daddy zoomed up and down the cycling tracks of ECP, showing Lleyton the sights by the sea, and how to use the bicyle's bell. Lleyton was hooked.
Next, Daddy brought Lleyton down to the basement carpark where the estate's bicycles are kept. They went from block to block, to look at each of the children bicycles, and probed Lleyton to find out which colour will he want his own bicycle to be in. Lleyton's bicycle is simple, "blue". When Daddy questioned "why not yellow? Yellow will be nice." Lleyton answered practically "No. Yellow bicycle is too big. Lleyton want small." He is obviously referring to the adult yellow bike which is clearly too large for him.
Finally, with Lleyton hooked, and his preferences known, Daddy went with Mummy to buy Lleyton his bicycle. Now, Lleyton is the proud owner of a 12" blue bicycle with a loud bell!
