I think she got it


I am so proud of my little girl. After weeks of trying to get her to feed herself...to master the pincer grasp...she did it. I just was overcome with joy. She was so proud as she shoveled the puffs into her mouth, at times looking like an ant eater or a hoover vacuum cleaner. She will use the back of her hand to push it in. I realized that we are on the road to becoming self sufficient. I am happy to gain some extra minutes to do other things now, like eat. I don't have to do things for her, instead I can do things with her. This fills me with so much joy. To just be able to share breakfast with her. I couldn't have asked for more than to witness her steps towards independence. She is too cute.
