Doesn't she look brave here?
No, you say. Why, she is only sitting in the green grass with her pretty dress on.
Well she walked over to that spot all by herself.
I know she has been walking for, like, two months now so what's the big deal?
She walked through this! That's the big deal. Both of her brothers were terrified of bare feet in grass, much less water sprinklers.
(With Avery, if there were sprinklers on during our walks we would have to cross to the other side of the street! He held on to that fear 'til he was 2 1/2.)
All was well as long as we clapped for her and she for herself.
She walked over there to be with him...
...who was much faster.
And to be with him...
...who gave her little reassurances of this wild new adventure.
A few cheers and claps
and all was well again,
and interesting,
and gasp..., what do they have and what are they doing?
Brothers are the mark to keep up with after all.
Avery's bat-check!
Okay PT did something with where the water comes out.
Yes, I think this is right.
Umm, well it's getting a little closer.
Ummm, okay really close!
At this point my little one did get upset and after a quick rescue and wardrobe change was back in the mix.
All I have to say is watch out boys, little sis intends to keep up.
'Ata girl! Keep it up MC!!
ReplyDeleteNever mind the brave and the curious-
ReplyDeleteI love the way she holds onto her daintiness; hooray for Mom who uses those beautiful dresses to encourage her toward this. We know the jeans will need to come eventually'
Julia, you captured some of the sweetest expressions on her beautiful face!
Such fun for all! I love her inquisitive look! Could captions too. A family of not just siblings but friends as well. Looking forward to spending time with them soon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great story...in words, pictures and content! She's destined for greatness.
ReplyDeleteIn this respect, she's just like her equally beautiful and adventurous Aunt Ruth! Go, sweet girl, go!
ReplyDeleteWatch out boys is right. That girl comes from a long line of eyebrow-raising females.
ReplyDeleteYes... you did notice the one where she is carrying the baseball bat, didn't you? We can be very assertive at times!
