Elsie 's favorite place to sit is on the bar stools in the kitchen...she crawls up on the stools like a pro...she has a little trouble getting off...but she is figuring that out quickly...
She looks so little sitting up high on the stool...and eating the tater-to-hotdish from Grandma B. 
I love this picture...feet dangling and the dropped food on the floor...my parents and sisters volunteered to come over and help me get the house in order before Lilly's grandparents came...they had just finished sweeping when Elsie decided to eat and drop food on the floor! I have come to realize that a clean house and children simple do not go together!

forget about a clean floor - it just doesn't stay that way once you have kids! ha!!
i watched her crawl up onto the stool last night - and she really is a pro! i'm glad you let her do those things and aren't too protective - there's nothing worse than a hovering mother who won't let her child learn and do things on their own, for fear of falling and getting hurt! good job elsie and shasta!!
I figure a good fall won't hurt them that bad, right?! It will probably only teach them to be a little more careful next time...
haha! you're right, shasta! that's what i say, too. (maybe that's why you kids have had so many broken bones, tho?!! ha!) but kids do learn quickly - but we moms just need to step aside and let them do it!
