Caminadora

So I've made up a new Spanish word to capture Sullivan's newest feat: She is officially a "Walkin' girl!" Yep, my little "supah dupah caminadora" is walking on her own completely and is loving it! I even had trouble finding her in our small house yesterday as she was moving so quickly on her two tiny feet. She has been taking a step here and there since 15mos, but greatly preferred crawling and basically refused to work on walking (held up her feet as we held her arms!?) when we tried to entice her. She is fiercely independent and I am quickly noticing that everything has to be on her terms and when she is ready. (My mom says she comes by that honestly, as I was quite a little pistol myself.) Needless to say, we are so happy for her newfound freedom. Go Sullivan, go!

Yes. Go Sullivan Go! From what I hear, when children start to walk, they are like lightning. One second you see them, and the other you don't. Glad to hear of the beautiful progress she is making. God bless you and the family as you enjoy the weekend. We have a wash out today as it has been raining. May the sun come out soon. Are you on Facebook?
