For weeks, she'd just take a few steps and then go back to crawling. Then one day, she wanted to carry something while crossing the room. With a reason to walk, she gave up crawling and walks everywhere now.
On Friday, we were walking while her big brother was riding his bike. I noticed her shadow and how it helped show her steps. I didn't have my camera with me. I don't usually like taking pictures in the bright, midday sun. But, here was a reason to. We went home for the camera and came out again. I was happy with the shadows and also with how the path reflected light on to her happy face.
