Mister Independent


Miles has just taken off in terms of his independence - I think it might be early onset of the 3s. His newest thing is that he is putting himself to bed. Our bed time routine had been that I fed Amelia and put her to sleep while Miles and Daddy watched TV or read books downstairs. Then Miles picks one of us to put him to bed, usually Daddy... until now. Now he declares "I can do it myself" and off he goes up the stairs. Normally Tim follows up after him, puts a blanket on him to kiss him goodnight and closes the gate. Its wonderful to know he is growing up, but it does come with some sadness that my little boy is becoming more independent.
