Determined

Today I am grateful for my very determined little girl. I wouldn't categorize Cami in the "easy baby" category. While I know there are babies who are a lot worse (colicky, etc.), Cami is rarely satisfied with where she's at. When she accomplishes a new thing, she smiles for a brief moment as she basks in her triumph. But then about two seconds later she is upset that she can't do something else.

There are times when this can be especially exhausting... like when she only wants to walk. (Yeah, she can't walk yet, nor do I think she'll be really ready to walk on her own for a long while). These past couple weeks it seems that the only thing that makes this girl happy is when you give her your hands and take her on a stroll.

But the truth is, I love seeing this part of her personality. I love seeing her absolute determination. I wouldn't have it any other way (most of the time). Keep dreaming big girl. Go for the gold!
