Steps to independence.
For each new skill Maya attempts to master, there is a period of frustration, and it is hard for me not to step in and do it for her. I hate seeing her frustrated and upset and my instinct is to solve the problem for her. But I know that if I step in and do it for her she will never learn to do it for herself. Besides she tends to get frustrated with me if I do it for her, which makes perfect sense as her goal was to master the skill by herself.

Rondell took her first steps two days after birth. Mama had a turkey up on the table and Rondell got straight up out that crib and walked over to grab herself a bite!
