Ladies and gentlemen, my son can now officially sit up on his own.
A new day has dawned. Now I can take him to Target and not face the struggle of carrying him in my arms while I push a cart, or trying to push a cart and a stroller at the same time, or trying to haul around a 20 lb car seat full of 20 lb kid.
No, no. Now I can sit him in the cart like a regular old kid. Now he can sit up, supporting himself, without any help. Now he’s getting closer and closer to independence.
I’m so proud of this guy I can barely stand it. He’s such a little champ.
Next step? He gets his eye operated on July 7th. It’s terrifying, but good. I’ve learned that every single thing is connected, and once he’s got those eyes fixed I’m sure that he’ll keep this streak alive and accomplish even more.
What a little wonder.
