We've been inpatient parents with the whole first steps thing. Sophia learned to pull herself up at 9 months and ever since we thought surely she'd be walking before her first birthday.
But we waited, and waited, and waited. Until tonight. Ever so wobbly and with her arms extended in the air as if she were reaching for the stars Sophia took her first steps.
We were overwhelmed with joy and so very proud. I shrieked, giggled and had tears in my eyes as I watched her move her right foot forward, then the left foot and right foot again. She took about three steps on three separate tries from me toward the couch to my parents all the while doing raspberries with her mouth.
Anthony and I looked on in awe just like when she was born.
