Anna does! Anna has been learning how to button her own PJs (these happen to have nice big buttons on them). She’s been trying for a while, but a few days ago she got it. There she was… quiet, serious, putting every ounce of concentration into getting that button through that hole… and when it went through, I think she surprised herself, then the surprised look turned into joy and then pride. I praised her as she held up her hand for a high-five. :)

She’s getting quite independent these days. She can actually get herself dressed and undressed for the most part, go potty and wash hands pretty well by herself, get her coat and mittens on and off, and of course, get us things we ask for or put things away. It’s kind of nice, actually. (Except when we’re in a hurry and I need to help her, and it’s “No Mommy I do it myself!”)
