Kyle started walking!

Well it finally happened last Friday. And I got to be home to see it. I think it kind of took all of us by surprise. I was home early so we could go to Ben's first Parent-Teacher conference. I had been holding Kyle and he wanted down so I set him down on his feet. He just stood there for a moment (which he does quite often) and then instead of plopping down onto his knees he picked up a foot and started stepping.

He took about three steps and then went to his knees. I could barely get the words out to get Mindy's attention because Kyle and I were both so excited. For about 5 minutes I just kept setting him back up on his feet and he kept trying. It was such an exciting few minutes. Kyle was even clapping for himself, he was so excited.

What a privilege it is to be a witness to all this growing up that my boys are doing.
