one step at a time and then one fall

this walking by yourself thing is hard. i can kinda take a couple of steps by myself but occasionally i trip over my socks or something and down i go. i don’t like that.

Keep at it! You’ll get the hang of it. After a while you’ll be as good at walking as your parents and I bet they hardly ever fall down.

there’s a phrase for accomplishing something in small increments. it’s called “baby steps.”

you may be frustrated by not reaching a goal right away (in this case, walking unaided) — but i am impressed with your progress. chin up!

“Put one foot in front of the other,
And soon you’ll be walkin’ ‘cross the floor-or-or.
Put one foot in front of the other,
And soon you’ll be walkin’ out the door.”

Walking is a difficult responsibility,
But oh what a good boy you’ll be,
When at last you’re on your own two feet
And smiling at every one you meet.

Break a legGood luck and keep practicing!

Hey, I forget how from time to time. It happens. I still trip over my own big feet, too. It’s … fun.

Sometimes bg does that on purpose. Get him to tell you about falling down in a big room with lots of people. Twice. On purpose.
