Little Eater

You guys...tonight, against all of my controlling impulses, I gave my daughter the spoon AND SHE FED HERSELF.

I can't even tell you how far out of my chest my neat-freak heart leapt as I saw the spoon flip face out and swing over the side of the tray (nooooo!! I don't want to sweep and mop the floors again!!!!). But I held it in. And by god, as I sat there ready to pounce on her, she DID IT. She flipped and spun the spoon around into her mouth. And then she chewed it to death. But that's besides the point. Whats important here is we are one more step closer to independent feeding, never mind the mess that comes along with that milestone.

Watch it here first:
