All by myself

Last night we reached a milestone in the Cohan family. Last night was a bath night. For awhile now Dash enjoys taking a bath by himself and I like to let him based on the nights timing with the girls. Well last night was a bath by himself night. When he takes a bath by himself, I usually sit in the bathroom reading a book. Last night I asked him if he wanted me to stay in the bathroom or if he wanted me to go in the living room(mostly that is what i wanted to do since I had a MOUND of laundry to fold). He said he wanted me to go in the living room. So I did. I left the door open a bit so I could hear him in the bathroom. He had played for awhile and I was finishing up with something and was going to give Dash the warning call to soap up time and I didn't hear him playing. So I headed to the bathroom to check on him and just as I was getting to the door I heard a HUGE splash of water. I was relieved to know he was ok and when I walked into the bathroom he had all the toys picked up and put back in the basket, had washed himself, and was in the rinsing stage! He then proceeded to empty the tub of water and dry himself off. My big boy is getting to be a BIG BOY. When he was all finished, he looked at me and said, "I did it all by my self. I make you very happy."(with a GINORMIS smile on his face.)
