Can I tell you of the joy I felt on the day that Lincoln learned to tie his shoes? ELATION! He has wanted to be able to do it for A LONG TIME. He set a goal to learn how to tie his shoes, and then do it for a whole week without any help. We told him that we would take him to see "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader," if he accomplished his goal. He worked so hard and it was pretty frustrating...and pretty rewarding! He can now do it all on his own (and has been for a while, he learned back in November and we are just now paying up, life has been so crazy!)He got his date with Dad and the reward for his goal last week. He loved going to the movie on his own with Dad and they came home pretty happy. And how much do I love that he now can not only tie his own shoes, but can help Hunter as well (oh the little things that make me excited).
