Our last day in the park for 2018, at 3 years old. She was just an infant 3 years ago. At 3 months old, she already comforted me when my mother died. She was about to fall asleep while feeding from her bottle yet her little finger held mine. During the funeral mass, she only wanted me to hold her. Her presence was enough.

At 3 years old, she is bouldering, jumping, rides a tandem bike with her grandpa and now rides her scooter. She takes risks but she determines the conditions she is comfortable with. Today, she determined the pace, what to play with in the park and determined the slope that she is comfortable with, and while she considers what her grandpa is telling her, she independently decides what is good for her.

She could have gone more distance but her helmet was not fitted well and several adjustments later, she felt at ease and moved swiftly, but at the speed she is okay at. #princess2015la
