Little Miss Independence

I watched Ellie come down the stairs after nap today in a very grown up outfit, looking very mature. I could image her 10 years from now rather easily. I know how fast time flies. Sometimes in this house it feels even a bit more real knowing I watched the boys do the same and they are already graduating college.

Ellie is such a beautiful and intelligent little girl. It is so fun watching her grow and learn to do things herself. With each step she needs a little less from me physically, but a lot more emotionally and maturity. The challenges change shape as a parent, but they do not end.

Tonight when she came in from the yard, for the second night in a row, she got herself a shower all alone. She washed even her hair all by herself. I'm so proud of her!
