One-two tie my shoe

Hunter can tie his own shoes, YIPPEE!!!! 

Over the summer Hunter was very determined to learn how to tie his own shoes.  He practiced on his t-ball shoes on the way to his games.  He would get so frustrated because he could get one loop but had trouble getting the other loop through.  Last week Hunter couldn't find one of his easy velcro shoes so I said, "hey, why don't we get your tie shoes out and you can practice again" so that's what he did.  And guess what?  The very first try he got it! He tied his shoe all by himself and then he tied his other shoe and then he was so excited and proud he untied them and tied them again.  It was so exciting to see him master tying his shoes and how seeing how excited he got.  He learned to tie his his shoes just days after we bought him cool new velcro sketchers.

Of course I had to take a video of how awesome he is now at tying his shoes.  He said he wants to put it on the computer to help other kids learn how to tie their shoes.
