Sarah Never Ceases to Amaze Me

So today, my daughter did two new firsts! She can now get on her hands and knees, but still needs to figure out how to get the crawling part going and this afternoon when I was playing on the floor with her, she rolled onto her back and shoved her right foot in her mouth! I am so proud of her, but feel bad for my husband because he missed out on her foot eating. I know the crawling, she is starting real early for her age, but I do know some other women around here who have babies that are 4-5 months old that can already crawl. It's amazing how some babies develop quicker in certain areas than others.
I think she is growing way to fast and would like her to be still needy for me, but I also want her to start being indpendent and try things out on her own. I know it's going to be really hard for me when she gets to the age of starting kindergarten and not wanting her to leave my side. I think all first time mothers and fathers have the difficulty of letting go and worrying if their child will be ok without them at school or with a friend or even a babysitter. I don't let anyone outside of family and very close friends watch Sarah when Ryan and I want to have us time or go sightseeing. Majority of the time, Sarah is always with me.
There are too many crazy people out there that I don't trust and if we ever did need a babysittler outside of family and firends, I plan on running a background check on them and still place cameras in my house to make sure they are not neglecting or abusing her. I have seen way too many nanny cams where the women are abusive to the children for no reason and that is not right!! It's sad to see the kind of world that we live in with a lot of bad people in it. It's also scary and I don't really like having that feeling. I think I might be turning into one of those worry wort mothers, but not the crazy not going to let my child do anything type.
One thing is for sure, you mess with my kid and I will take you out like Cougar protecting her young.
