It is great to hear your son is making such progress. I just thought

I would share this with you. I didn't actually walk until I was

around 3 years old. For most of my crawling period I was a " roller " .

Rolled everywhere I went. When I became capable of standing, I walked

along behind a stroller that I pushed everywhere. I am told that

suddenly one day I came walking on my own from the back yard and

exclaimed to my mother that I would no longer be needing my stroller

because I was going to walk on my own. She said it was quite a

shocker to see my on my own so suddenly...
