Today, our little Duncan is no longer a baby! He proved himself as a certified toddler when he rode a baby caterpillar on the Timezone area of Market!Market! all on his own. Its quite an experience for all of us. Its his first time to be just himself and its our first to let him go. Its a mixed feeling of excitement, anxiety, and of being proud. All my worries disappeared when I saw him oh so relaxed and so happy. At first, he holds steadily to the hand railing and when he adjusted to it he let go of the bar and waved at us!
There's a lesson that I've learned - day after day, as your child grows you simply have to be accept that while you have enjoyed yourself cuddling the little one, keeping him attached to you, taking control so he wont get hurt, watching every step so he won't fall - you should try to lossen your grip so he can experience things that real life brings.
Its amazing really... how he's grown so fast!
