For me one of the best things about being a mum is enjoying the simple things. Ordinary moments that will soon be forgotten, as our children develop at a frightening pace. My favourite thing at the moment is watching Baby stand ‘hands-free’. Over the last couple of weeks Baby’s confidence has started to grow. When she has been cruising round the furniture, she will take a hand off here and there. This progressed recently, to her taking both hands off her support. It is adorable, almost like she has heard a drumroll. She pauses, focuses, lets go and then is ecstatic when she manages a couple of seconds standing on her own.
I’m sure she will soon be zooming about, running rings round us and this stage will be a distant memory. So I have immortalised it here, so we can remember how much joy she found in the process of learning to stand on her own two feet.

That’s lovely! You’re right, these things are forgotten so quickly as they achieve so much in their little lives, so it’s good to be able to remember.
