Left Behind

N passed a milestone recently: she can now ride her two wheeler, alhamdulilah. Yes, it all happened after we had Baby Z, such that when I was recovering in post partum, N asked me,

"Ummi, can you teach me to ride the bike?"

In the end, S and H helped her. They pushed her, and pretty soon she was cycling on her own.

I would peek out the window and see the three of them on the sidewalk; N on her bike, H on his, and S pushing N from behind. N also had her big fall where she scraped her knee real bad that she didn't even show it to me.

"Can I go to the masjid with Abi now?" she asked one time.

S and H had that opportunity, but she never did. Now that she can ride her two wheeler, she is asking for that opportunity.

Maybe I need to write a new story now, as she is no longer Left Behind.
