Hallie- Sliding on your own!

Dear Hallie,


Everything that you do amazes me. This weekend you learned to slide all by yourself! Aunt Robin and Anna visited us, and we spent the afternoon at the park. You always enjoy playing with Anna and following her around! This day wasn't any different. The first few times that you went down the slide, we stood at the bottom and caught you in our arms. Then, after watching Anna slide by herself you decided that you would give it a try! From that moment on, you didn't want anyone to catch you. Over the course of the next few days, we spent a LOT of time sliding in the backyard. I even took you to the park again. After all of the practice, it wasn't long before you began to climb up the steps on your own! It was a bittersweet moment for mommy. I beamed with excitement that my baby girl learned to slide on her own but was a little sad at the very fact that you didn't need my help anymore. I'm proud of you, Hallie bug.


I love you beautiful girl,

Mommy
