She walked home from school!

We live about 2 miles from Elisabeth's preschool, and until now have used the stroller to walk to and from school. Last week, we had dinner with friends who have a daughter 10 months younger than Elisabeth who regularly walks 2 miles from their home to her school. Inspired by her stamina, I decided it was time to let Elisabeth try the walk.

On Tuesday, she walked all the way home - without a single complaint! Yesterday we tried it again on the way home, and I was the one trying to keep up with her. She would run ahead and stop for me to catch up, and then start sprinting again.

Needless to say, she sleeps well at night!
