Josiah

Josiah is a bit over six. I have tried several times since he was 4 1/2 or so to teach him to tie his shoes. He had come close more than once but never had the patience to sit long enough and try hard enough to "get it." I decided yesterday was going to be the day of victory! I told him that he couldn't go outside or have supper until he tied his shoes by himself. He did it!! Today he did it again! I am still giddy over this. I thought he might be 30 and have to have help from his wife=)

Too funny! I remember you telling me that dd would be potty trained by the time she was 5 or 25 or something like that. :)
