John climbs

John did something new today. I won't say "learned" something new, because he didn't do it like something he was learning. He just acted like it was something that he finally decided he wanted to do, so he just up and did it.

John climbed up to the top bunk of the bed. We have had the ladder put away for months to prevent such exploration, but today he apparently tired of the charade that we were confining his travels. So, he just up and climbed up the end of the bed, using the footboards of the bunk as an improvised ladder.

Maggie and James alerted me. They had already been up there playing and he apparently decided to join them. By the time I got to the scene, he was jumping up and down on the top bunk with a face of sheer joy, shouting gleefully at the top of his lungs.
