Carter walked four steps this afternoon at daycare. According Miss Amber and Miss Jennifer, his teachers, a toy walker that he was pushing across the floor rolled away from him. Carter stood there, looked at the toy and then took four steps to retrieve it. I was excited to hear that he had walked four steps when I picked him up at daycare this evening, but I also felt sad that I had not been there to see it. I want to be present whenever Carter reaches any milestone. I have to keep reminding myself that I did get to see Carter walk 1 1/2 steps several weeks ago at my mother's house - so technically I did get to see him take his first steps although at that time they were a little bit forced.
