Tonight Kyleigh picked up a piece of bathroom tissue and blew her nose. Then, she walked to the bathroom and threw the used tissue in the trash can! I couldn't believe what I saw. I praised her immediately. Kyleigh was also very proud of herself and clapped her hands.
Another thing she likes to do is sorting the daily mail with me. She can't quite tear open all the envelopes yet, but she has learned to pull the content out of the envelopes and hand them to me.
She also pulls the clean diapers out of the new package and hands them to me, so I can refill the diaper organizer.
Sometimes my husband and I give something to Kyleigh and ask her to give the thing to mommy (or daddy) back and forth. She obeys and serves as our little private courier (although sometimes we have to beg her to do so).

My son still likes to open the mail and any boxes we get......and he's fifteen, lol!
I'm searching the site right now for some interesting content that would be a great addition to the new Gather group called 'Mother's Day 2008'.
I found this article and would love for you to post this to the group. Mother's Day 2008 is a group that celebrates the moms and mother figures in our lives and I know that all the new group members would really like to experience this piece of your life.
Now, let's see how long it lasts - the yearning for independence is on the way.
