Congratulations!  You survived.

The first Mr. Noddy didn't believe in training wheels.  My first born, flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone was conspicuously uncoordinated.  
Working from a corner of a neighborhood park (grass is softer than asphalt), I'd help balance the bike when he mounted.  Then we'd count the number of pedal revolutions before he had to stop.
One-to-three goes quickly;  three-to-ten is very slow.  Once the kid can do twelve revolutions, she'll be up and away.
