Gracie pulled up on Monday.  She wanted Steph to hold her. 
She did it again on the fireplace yesterday.  I knew she’d start
doing it soon, but it made me want to cry.  She’s growing up too
fast!!  The hardest thing is not being able to praise her for it
(or not being sure if we should) since we really don’t want her
standing yet.  Her knees hyper-extend still, and until we get her
leg muscles built up to keep that from happening, she shouldn’t be
standing.  So we point and whisper to each other, and try to act
like nothing special happened while we distract her and make her sit
back down.  She really needs to be crawling and creeping
(hands-and-knees) a lot more.  Oh, Gracie-bug…

Last week my six-year-old sister painted my toenails for me.  I’m
just now getting to where I’m not shocked when I see my feet. 
*grin*

One thought on “

  1. I think she’ll go ahead and creep first. She doesn’t know what to do when she stands up. :)I really, really liked your poem about the moon. I didn’t see it until just now.love,stacy
