Growing up

People who have not seen Grace in the last couple of weeks keep on saying she has gotten so tall. I think she probably is a little bit taller but besides that I think her face is changing, and she is just growing up. With the growing up – Grace has been challenging all her boundaries and its rather exhausting having to correct the behaviour all the time, but in between these, there are such special moments. I love our little outings, playing times and chats, she makes me laugh with all the funny things she says and does and I love how she remembers funny little stories and will talk about it days later.
I also love our time in the kitchen together, Grace loves to bake and has started enjoying helping with supper preparation. I know I need to slow things down if Grace is going to help (which can have its own frustrations) but it is wonderful to see her determination to master certain tasks like grating cheese and the joy she gets at her success. Today she persevered and managed to peel a potato – which I found fascinating to watch – it didn't matter that she was struggling she continued until it was done. I really love this special girl.
