When did you learn to tie your shoes?

Audra learned to tie her shoes last week. The truth is that most of her shoes have velcro! Ugh! So we have had little opportunity to practice this lost art. These cute hand-me-downs from her big girl cousins gave us the chance to work on a good "tie!" She would become exasperated (and in truth I am a pretty bad teacher) So I parked one of my tennis shoes in her lap while we'd drive and she would practice and practice and she got it. To see her face was priceless, beaming while she held a well-tied shoe!! Now that is an accomplishment!
