Jovan started to walk on his own yesterday. He is pretty careful in his learning to walk. Mom said that all of her four daughters (me and my sisters) were daring enough to walk/run from one point to another when we were still unable to walk properly. Jove actually took his sweet time to master his steps and refused to practice walking on his own previously.
Yesterday night, at my in-law's, I witnessed my little cherub walking into the room, all on his own, from the door where his father was standing. With a wide, big, cheerful smile on his face, he toddled into my embrace, on his own, not holding on anything or anyone.
Boy, I couldn't even describe how my feelings were at that point. Happy, excited, proud, yet I felt some sort of fleeting sadness. Soon, he will let go of my hand (and refused to be held) when he walks and runs in this big big world.
Do you, mothers, feel the same?

Wow... Jovan is walking already?!
Yup I can imagine how you feel :)
Time is fleeting.
I remember a few weeks ago, I was still fixing Gilbert's carseat into his stroller, Gabby was already running towards the carpark. I quickly lock the door and run after her..... I almost had a heart attack ;)
Uh oh... that's what I'm getting myself into in the future, isn't it? :)
