November 13 - Amazing First Steps!

I can't believe THIS is finally and really happening. My big little girl is taking her first independent steps on her own, more daring every day! This is unbelievably exciting for our family. All of us witnessed the happy moment and Ollie was shouting "Mommy daddy did you see? Amelia CAN walk! " It's a long way she's come to reach this point. Not that I doubted that she will eventually walk but it was a very slow process and sometimes painful for Amelia. This Summer she was more aware of many things and so frustrated that she could not run after her brother and friends. By the next Summer she will certainly well prepared. It will not even be about catching them but being able to get up from the ground and do whatever they do. She is so happy now. So determined to practice, eager to walk. It's a pure joy to watch her, to join her happiness.  What a lesson in patience. Now it is time to celebrate. Joyful season too! I am still trying to catch Amelia's own steps on camera!
