We're starting to see little sparks of independent spirit in little Miss M. She now wants to eat her snacks sitting on a big chair at the big table. She'll pull her plate and her bowl out of her drawer in the kitchen, set her place at the table and then page us with "Hep, hep!" (translation = help, help) while simultaneously signing for cereal. She hasn't quite figured out how to climb up on these particular chairs yet nor can she reach the cabinet containing the Cheerios (mastering the former will aid in accomplishing the latter, though). It won't be long, I'm afraid.
