The Continuing Adventures of Super-Preemie

Shoshanna is a former micro-preemie (born 3 1/2 months early) who's now thriving! If you'd like to support research into the causes & prevention of premature birth, you can donate to WalkAmerica.

Pedestrian Girl

It has long been a normal occurrence for Shoshanna to decide halfway through a walk that she wants out of her stroller or wagon. Usually, her being out has resulted in lots of investigating sticks and mud and rocks and more often than not, a fight about either being carried or going back in her stroller.

In the past couple of days, however, Shoshanna has discovered the joys of actually WALKING on walks. Monday night she insisted that she wanted out of her stroller and then proceeded to push it (with us helping steer, when she would let us) for something like three blocks. Last night, she pulled her wagon (while walking backwards) for the better part of a block and then pushed it from behind for another 2.5 or so. She even crossed the street with it! We were very impressed, and she was terribly proud of herself.
