Lottie walking

Yep, the Lotmeister is walking.

Okay we have a way to go, she's only just started and we have to work on her strength, her style, her balance, her confidence, but fact is - she's doing it, she's walking.

It takes encourangment and stuff, I mean no-one was expecting her to just stand up and gracefully walk around, but she's enjoying it

I got her to do it by getting her to pretend to be a dog and I was calling her over and as she got near me (I was only 3 steps away if that) I backed away and she just kept coming!

Then today at school her report came home saying:

"The walking has been endless today. The children in the class are delighted and have given her so much encouragment and she just beams. We are all so proud of her. A quote from one of the children 'what an exciting day'. Charlotte got the head teacher award for her fantastic achievement."

She must be SO chuffed with herself!

WELL DONE LOTTIE
This thread has made my day. Wonderful, wonderful news. You must all be so very proud of her.

TeeCee · 16/11/2006 22:02

You're all so kind, thank you for making the happy feeling last and last while Lottie is upstairs asleep!

I've just seen her headmistress at a meeting and she was off to write up Charlotte's special acheivement in the newsletter.

The little boy that hasn't left Charlottes side since and has been cheering and applauding her the loudest has asked if he can Charlotte over for tea.

I love that school, I love the teachers, all the kids, both my daughters and the fact that I said the 2 of them would be walking within weeks of each other.

Life's just great sometimes isn't it.
