She Ties Her Shoes

Anna is a quick learner. I taught her how to tie her shoes in about 10 minutes at the shoe store last month (we were trying to decide between Velcro and laces, but at the time she hadn't been taught how to tie).

I was all proud of her (and still am, of course), and then my mom burst my bubble by telling me that the twins, my nephews Brock and Baylor, already knew how to tie their shoes when we all met at the camp in Mississippi last spring. And they weren't even 4 at the time! Way to go, guys!

I guess I should try to teach Alexander.
