MONUMENTAL MOM MOMENT -
Okay, so it actually was a monumental moment for Evelyn, but if felt much more like MY moment so please humor me for a moment.
I was at the stove cooking up some grub for Evelyn. Out of the corner of my eye I see Evelyn stand up, which she has done a million times before, no biggie, and THEN I see movement....lots of movement, lots of standing, walking continuous movement without falling over, and it continued and continued and continued on.
My precious babe walked the whole length of the kitchen and into the hallway!!!.....I was speechless, she didn't even know I was watching her.
She paused in the hallway after her marathon walk, still standing, with her back to me and she congragulated herself by clapping, giggling and walking right out of my sight.
What?! I didnt' know what to do with this first 'moment' of walking.....so I laughed and cried and swooped her up, fed her dinner.....and kept telling her how proud I was of her over and over and over again. She just stared at me, poised so properly from her highchair with this perplexed look like "ooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkkkaaaaaaaaaaayyyy already lady, you've made your point, let me just get on with my corn and avocado if you don't mind."
Much Love - and Happy Walking! ;-)

Hello Bobby, Sarah and Evelyn! I just spent a little time cruisin' thru your blog and have thoroughly enjoyed all the photos of your precious little girl. I see a lot of her daddy in her, for sure! And, she would seem to be a bit of a clown/imp - now where would that come from?! :-)
Hope to get to meet her one of these days. Headed to the BWCA for a couple of weeks then back for busy Walk season. Bring your new walker and join us for a CROP Walk! Peace & love, Janet
