She can tie her shoes!

Sophia has been working on trying to tie her shoes off and on for the last year.  This summer it started to click, but she couldn't keep it tight enough to stay put once she let go, even if she did everything else right.  Yesterday, though, she mastered it!  She can now tie her own shoes.  Not using the way mommy or daddy taught her, though.  Instead she uses a technique one of the student helpers at dance class taught her.  Either way, I'm glad she has it down.  Now she wants to go out and buy all new shoes.....all with laces to tie.  :-)
