Sliding like a big girl!

Molly's teachers have been telling us how much she enjoys the slide in the gym. Given how cautious Molly is, we weren't sure whether to believe them when they said that she went down the slide by herself. We just thought we misunderstood them, but turns out we were wrong! This weekend, we went down to the park. We put Molly on the slide like we normally do, just basically holding her off to the side and guiding her down. Then we put her at the top of the slide to crawl around (the platform is fairly large) and Molly went straight to the slide, turned around and slid down on her belly like a pro! We couldn't believe it until she proceeded to do it over and over... The funniest part is that she gives no indication of whether or not she's actually enjoying herself! Rather it was more like she was seriously practicing and perfecting her sliding skills in prep for the "slide Olympics"! Of course, in typical Molly style, she slid down cautiously on her belly.

Slide away, Molly...
