Another First: Using A Fork (Successfully)

Brooke has been tinkering with silverware. She can put a spoon to her mouth but cannot scoop the food herself. Essentially, I fill up the spoon and hand it to her and she puts it into her mouth. She hasn't really understood the idea of a fork until today. I showed her how to stab a piece of zucchini with the fork and then handed it to her, she put it in her mouth. She then took the fork herself and made a few attempts to pick up a piece. Finally, she got one! And she got two more after that :) Go Brooke!
