Daniel has been walking with his physical therapist for about the last month, the last few weeks holding on to an object in the false idea that he’s holding on to something to help him balance. (Think Dumbo’s feather.) Well, he walked all by himself with S (his physical therapist), Jon, and I following him. I thought that this is great but it would be awhile before he walked on his own and of his own intention.

Well… last night, he just walked over to me. He let go of whatever he was holding and walked by himself. (Yes, I know he’s 2.5 years old and most kids walk by the time they’re 1.) This is massive major news for us and a BIG development toward him being independent and catching up with his peers. I am so incredibly thankful to God that we’ve FINALLY hit this milestone. Granted, he’s not doing this 100% of the time… but he can!
