Today Chewy worked 1/2 day and we went out for lunch at a favorite sushi restaurant.
Willow tagged along and she was exceptional. She had some noodles and it was with pretty great skill that she ate them with chopsticks. She worked and concentrated so hard. We even offered her a fork. She refused and went to work.
With wonder I watched how maturely she worked at this. It struck me at how all these things I take for granted--she has had to learn them. And is still learning them. How much determination and how many times children fail. But yet keep trying. And succeed.
I think I needed to see that. To be reminded.
