Lately, whenever I ask Milo to hold my hand, he does this:
Apparently, two-year-olds are grown-up enough to hold their own hands when walking in the parking lot or crossing the street.
At least he’s got himself securely. And, it’s a little tricky for him to walk fast while maintaining this clench, so only occasionally do I have to break up the party with my own hand (or simply a hoist onto the hip).
What am I going to do when Eliot arrives…?

When Heather was that age she would just sit down in the parking lot and refuse to anywhere if I attempted to hold her hand. She has always been very independent and it has turned out to be a very good quality.
Yep. Independence is great! Right now I would just love for him to independently choose to do what I ask…wishful thinking?
Oh, the cuteness of a 2 year old! Love it
you'll be amazed that you can actually hold two kids at the same time! not till eliot is a little older though, but i do it all the time. it's an occasional zoo, but it's fun!
