I have been waiting for NR to take few steps on his own. Kids of his age are walking,running and hopping around and my little fellow is still crawling. He has been cruising around the house holding sofas, coffee table, wall, tables or anything that he can get hold of for last six month. But never took a step on his own without support.
He started taking few baby steps on his own to the delight of his mom and paternal grandma. He wanted to show his grandma his "Independent walk" ten days before her journey back to India and before his 18 month dr visit.
I never forced myself in believing milestones as per baby books. Every kid is different and they are sent to this earth with all necessary set of traits to lead their life. As child I never allowed myself to be compared with others because I am who I am and not them. Tiny part of me was worried about him not reaching this milestones like other kids though he was standing and cruising for hours at time playing with his car on the TV cabinet since he was 12 months old . When I shared this worry with CB his reply was "whatever is going to happen" he is going to be our son right ?" which made me to smile. That words of pride as a father and supportive husband and friend reassured me that I have a strong hands to hold me and guide me in this life path no matter what life brings to us. We have always walked together thru all the testing times in our life and every unexpected incidents in our life has made us stronger as a couple.
I am happy to see NR doing the duck/drunken walk around the house . I am very thankful for that.
