And She’s Off

Dear Leila Rose Petal,
You are a lovely and inquisitive kid. You are friendly and clever and beautiful. But Mum and I have been a bit frustrated by your reluctance to walk. Tearing around on your knees is certainly cute but we are sure you’ll like your feet once you give them a good try. We’re both sure you are just taking your time and will do stuff when you are ready, very much like your brother.
So last night after dinner when you just started walking around the place we were both shocked and delighted. It was made even more special for me that you called me “dada” as you tottered past me. Keep it up little moppet head.

How exciting! And hooray for kids being kids and doing things just exactly when they feel like it. Those pics are gorgeous. She is absolutely beautiful!
