I couldn't quite remember what age the transformation from baby toddler to "I am all grown up and know everything" took place but my youngest granddaughter aided me in remembering - it is exactly 2 weeks before they turn 3 years old! How in the world could I have forgotten that?!
She now gets her own drink with ice of course, goes potty alone, goes to class at church without an escort and so much more! We have hiccups, but in our house you learn by doing and doing she does! I will miss those needy times but it is time to move on to bigger things.
