We say it a lot, and I'm sure we will say it more in the future -- "She's growing up so fast!"
Yesterday we learned that flu shots were available, including the H1N1 at the local family home care clinic. As Kim could not get away from school, I took a long lunch hour to take her for the shots. Kim was there when I picked her up at daycare, and it was all good and go! The shots went very well, no tears at all, and Miaya didn't cry either! We celebrated with some plain doughnuts on the way back, and she munched right through hers. I was dreading the return to the daycare, but Miaya surprised me by marching right in the door and taking her coat off. We proceeded on to the classroom and had a happy parting.
Miaya surprises us a lot, from zipping her own coat to (sometimes) picking up her stuff with minimal prompting to - well - a lot of things. Not quite 2 1/2, but we find ourselves in wonderment at the things she does and says. New words appear almost daily, and they are getting clearer all the time. She walks more now, it's not always a frantic dash everywhere she goes. To think of the things she has learned and accomplished it just that 2 1/2 years, from zero to the self possessed little girl she is now.
