recent Tiny Steps towards Growing Big

Discovering pockets and putting your hands in them when you walk.
Noticing and trying to catch rainbows.
Going down the slide alone: on your tummy when you remember, and face first when you are in a hurry.

Pulling yourself up onto the swing and pumping with your legs to get going.
Desiring to use the potty alone. And better? Learning to wipe alone.
Imitating your preschool teacher, who says Didcha? and For ya. and Bigga (bigger)!
Protecting your younger brother in the wagon.

Dance!

I've been blogging for 6 months now. My most popular post is one about my eyeglass frames turning white. I don't really understand how all this blogging-stats-stuff works. And I choose not to learn any more than I already know. Because knowing more is not my purpose with this blog.

Ridiculous.
