The time: 3 am. The place: Our family bed; Alex between Mommy (sleeping on her back) and Daddy (sleeping on his tummy). The child awakes. He is hungry. He doesn't cry -- why should he? He is perfectly capable of doing this himself. Instead, he rolls over onto his tummy, props himself up on his elbows, scootches a little closer to Mommy, and latches on to her breast. Mommy wakes up to see her little leech boy helping himself.
That's determination.
That's really incredible, Dineen!
