Shashank is now a little over two-and-a-half, and I can already see him budding into a self-reliant kiddo. There was a time when I constantly thought about teaching him how to do things himself, just little tasks like putting books away, or getting his bottle when we are heading out. Well, I will admit he would be pretty obliging sometimes, but more often than not he would give me a ‘fetch-it-yourself’ grin and continue doing his own thing! Lately of course, he is much more eager to ‘learn’ the basics of daily life. Like trying to put his shirt on sans any help from mom (so cute!), he even tries to feed himself sometimes refusing mummy’s offer to help. And he is always careful to remove his shoes after an outing, adorable I tell you!
One Mr. Independent he is turning out to be, and I am so loving it. It’s is such fun watching your tempestuous little prankster play the big-boy routine. Riveting, totally!
