Tie them shoes baby!

Jon Kent and Zoey,


Y'all have both mastered tying your shoes.  Jon Kent, you have been sooo close for so long and finally have put it all together.  And just in time, too.  Not one whole day later, Zoey you learned how to tie your shoe.  You patiently allowed me to show you and then just copied what I did.  Now, Jon Kent.. you had to figure it out on your own.  You would let me show you, but then you would have to do it on your own. You just rather figure things out for yourself. No shame in that!  There were a few times we thought you had it, but that last step of getting that last bunny ear through always got you.  But you didn't give up!  I am so proud of you for sticking with it!  Zoey, once you learned how to tie your shoe you were eager to show your teachers at school and all your friends.  You came running to the car telling me all the friends you had helped that day tie their shoes.  My little helper!  I am very proud of you, too!

Yay for my first two babies learning how to tie their shoes!!


Love,

Momma
