Her independence grows.............

Took Kali 2.4 to Worlds of Fun day before yesterday along with Grandpa. We went through and did the usual rides on our way around the part. We got back to the kiddie rides and I took her on the kiddie rollercoaster. She thought it was fantastic. We rode it a second time because there wasn't a line.

Then a funny thing happened. All of the kiddie rides previously were a 'no' from Kali because she refused to ride a ride without Mommy or Daddy. But today was different. Out of nowhere, she pointed to one of the kiddie rides and said she wanted to ride it. I told her that I wasn't able to ride it with her and asked if she wanted to ride by herself. She said 'mmmmm-hmmmm'. Jumped right on the ride and loved it. She was excited as she exited the ride and kept saying 'I ride by myself!'. So we went to another kiddie ride.......and another.......and another. 45 minutes later, she had gone on just about every ride in the kiddie section. She loved it.

Yet another step to becoming a 'big girl'.
