The Ultimate First!

Today Evan and I went to our afternoon park visit. It was a beautiful day there on the bluff. Evan was busy trying to eat rocks and sticks. This is his favorite new thing to do. I try to substitute real food for the rocks and he eats it and then goes back to the rocks.

Evan was pushing his walking truck around and exploring the bluff. There is so much to see and my little man wants to take everything in and see what it is all about. He was pushing his truck and stopped to look over at me. When he looked at me I kneeled down and held out my hands and asked for him to come to me. HE WALKED FOUR STEPS RIGHT INTO MY ARMS! I threw him up in the air and hugged him. When I looked at his little face he was clapping and smiling. He had such pride in what he had done. He knew what an amazing thing he had just done. His reaction was so precious! Our lives are about to change in such a big way. I can't imagine him walking all over the place.
