Awed by the Walking

Matthew walking

When Matthew started walking about 10 days ago, I expected he'd be black and blue all over from the falls. He is all scraped up right now, but not from the walking. He fell off a chair in the kitchen and scraped up his face.

I can't believe the progress Matthew made in the week after he started taking those first few steps. He's learned to pause and balance himself.  He's learned to change directions (not always successfully though).  He's learned to start off from any standing position.  And he doesn't really fall anymore.  When he loses his balance, he just sits down.  I'm just awed and amazed!
