On Her Own Two Feet

 

I took my eyes off Margaret briefly* today, and when I turned back around, she had pulled herself up on a chair.

I’m not opposed to this, but it certainly took me a little by surprise.  I mean, I don’t know that I want her to learn to stand up until she can have it explained to her that the ground is hard, and it’s a bad idea to smack into it with her head.

Which, incidentally, she did shortly after this picture was taken.

I have to keep reminding myself that it’s all part of learning to be a person, but I think that I may have to invest in some more foam padding until she really gets a handle on things.

*For the time that it took to feed the cat, as it happens.
