i get to be the one to hold your hand.

There are days when it doesn't feel like a mercy that my last baby has decided to take FOREVER to learn to walk.  But today was different.  Sand between her toes (and in her teeth) turned out to be wonderful motivation.  She signed "more, more, more" and pointed to the ocean.  She attempted to run, did several face plants and took my hand.

It won't be long now, sweet girl.
