My Do it Myself

Soph has a real yen to dress herself these days. Yesterday after much bluster and misdirection, she finally put on her pink gardening shoes all by herself. She was very proud. Emboldened, she went straight for the green dress, and upon pulling it over her head, announced, I got it! She wore her green dress like a cape for the rest of the day.

Love it. I cannot wait for this stage.

Saw our pediatrician outside of the office with her two-year-old daughter -- the girl was wearing a plaid dress, a crown, a tutu, fairy wings, and one zillion necklaces. I asked her if she had been to a party. "No," she told me. Then her mom explained that Emmerson had chosen her own outfit.

It was pretty fabulous.

clothes you learned to put on. Papaw and I are so happy that your second birthday party went so well.We hope you are enjoying ZOE and all your other birthday gifts...Happy 2nd birthday!

We all send our love to you, Little
