"Leash on Toffee?" she asks.
"No, you can do it."
"I did it!" "Look!"
"Come On, Toffee."
Putting the leash on Toffee is not easy for Bethie. So I was very proud that she kept trying until she got it done.
Bethie has some learning difficulties - motor skills and verbal skills - a rather abrupt change after receiving the flu shot when she was just past 1 with all of ther other vaccines.
Until then, she was hitting and passing milestones with ease and trying to take steps.
From the day she got the shots and for the next 4 months, she stopped all progress and cried day and night. She didn't walk until she was well past 18 months, and didn't talk until she was past 3 and Matthew and Joel started talking. She tries very hard to keep up with them.
She is very smart and very loving otherwise.
