bumbling feet and arms sway maddeningly persistent
crawling up on all fours toothless jaw jutting insistent
effervescent jumping and infectious naughtiness conquers
the sashaying walk has now drawn up a bevy of admirers
but in my stubborn heart the child in her, still dauntlessly lingers....

Love the transition from "bumbling feet" to "sashaying walk" which seems to happen in real life about as quickly as can be read in this poem. Our children are always children in parents' eyes.
