Yesterday I was working at my desk when Storie excitedly called my name.
“Mom, Mom, I did it , I did it! I put on a sock!”
I spun around and saw her on the floor behind me. As I started to say, “Good job Storie” something hit me…. This was the first time she was ever doing something. We wear crocs here 11mo. out of the year. She has no reason to ever put on socks herself.
All of a sudden it became really neat.
It was really sweet watching her try and work the sock the right way.
It really took some maneuvering. 
But she finally got it.
Look how proud of herself she was. 
She is so beautiful. 
I promise that I am not under the influence of PMS in any way, putting on socks does not normally cause me to cry, but with little kids you often get to see them doing something you have done a thousand times, for the very first time. She will put on socks for the rest of her life, but yesterday I got to see it the very first time she ever did it herself. I got to see that look on her face when she finally got it on right…. I have to run, something is wrong with my computer screen, it is all blurry, I better go and hug the kids!
