Eowyn no longer desires two adult hands to assist her in walking. She only wants one! She's on her way to walking. She actually took a couple steps the other day, all by herself. It was an accident...the thing she was holding onto was further away from me then she thought it was so when she went to grab my leg she let go of her stable support and sort of did the jerky baby lunge, with legs in motion, thing, which qualified as 2 steps, on her own. She has been spotted standing alone for several seconds at a time, that may or may not have added up to 1/2 a minute.
She thinks she's pretty cool, and will often start talking to the dog as she's starting to move from one stable object to another. Maggie fains interest, but really just wants to be sure Eowyn is not going for anything that Maggie wants, like rocks, our shoes, her bone, though she has very little concern with Eowyn investigating her toys...Maggie is actually far more interested in Eowyn's toys then her own lately, and I think would rather trade, so sees "sharing with Eowyn" will acutally work in her favor.
Eowyn is talking to Maggie as she walks with Christopher...She's pretty proud of herself, as she carries her little lion (thank you Ellen). Maggie desires that Lion, too, by the way...
