More independence

Grace is getting a stronger and stronger desire to act independently – she wants to dress herself (and knows what she wants to wear), she does not want to hold our hand while climbing stairs, and she wants to climb into the bath on her own…just to name a few.

She has always enjoyed buttering and spreading her bread with her little bear knife, and now she enjoys cutting it herself. If she uses the bear knife it requires quite a lot of sawing and hacking, but she perseveres and cuts off the crusts (with some help), and then cuts her bread into pieces for herself.

It is lovely to watch her grow her independence.

A bumble bee came to visit our lemon tree. Grace often asks to see the bees so this was a treat, but she was not too keen on the loud buzzing.
