Big Girl Bed

This week we transitioned Rebecah from the crib to a twin bed. She has done great the last two days. She had been climbing out of the crib more and more each week so we decided that instead of risking a fall we would just move her. She made this move much sooner than Kimball did. He was a month shy of 3 before we moved him! Rebecah LOVES her new bed. She and Kimball both were so excited the evening Joseph and I made the switch. Rebecah has done really well staying in her bed. She actually can't climb in and out of her bed by herself so that may have something to do with the easy time we are having. Her bed is intended to be the top bunk in a set of bunk beds so the top bunk came with a side rail. We will use it until she is accustomed to a big bed. She's growing up fast! On the Kimball front, he was the beneficiary of a good deed yesterday. We walked by the American Red Cross office in town and Kimball paused to peek in the window and see what was going on. On our way back to the van we had to pass the door again. Just as I was getting ready to leave a woman came out of the Red Cross and she asked if she could give a soccer ball to Kimball. The ladies inside had seen him peeking in their door and they wanted to give him a little present. It made Kimball's day and mine. It was a nice simple reminder that there are still generous, kind people in the world.
