tonight, after dinner, i tempted him again to let go of the ottoman and walk to me. he was soooo eager to try it, reaching out for me with all his might using one arm, while keeping the other safely on the ottoman. then finally, he got so brave and went for it, letting go.
the look of "wow" and confidence that spread across his smile was adorable.... until he fell like a tree in the woods. honestly, he fell forward as stiff as a board. but, he laughed about it and tried it again, letting go a couple more times, each time standing a few seconds before falling either forward flat or back onto his bottom. the best part was seeing how pleased he was with himself when he got enough courage to give it a shot. i loved it!
