My sweet sweet girl.
This week is full of firsts.
The first times I put you down in a parking lot to walk. Today (and yesterday) you happily held my hand and were so excited to help open doors.
The first time you went upstairs by yourself looking for a misplaced blanket (rather than looking for a missing Mommy.) The first time it has occurred to me that the gates at the top and bottom of the stairs are really about convenience rather than constant fear for your saftey.
The first time you opened your mouth and let me brush your teeth (even thought you didn’t want to-I usually just let you chew on the toothbrush.)
The first time you have slept alone without a monitor (only because I left it in Houston)
And one rather significant last.
The last time you will fly free on Southwest because you are under two.
We love you and are so proud of you. Keep growing sweet girl. We promise to keep watching and praying.
