Fear of falling

I am just writing to record my observation that a few days ago Gian's walking seems to have transformed. She suddenly feels confident and strides across the room. In fact, she's walking everywhere nowadays. My theory is that she has lost her fear of falling. That is, I think she has finally convinced herself that she is able to control her falls and is thus no longer troubled by the nearly inevitable falls she takes. She's not fully competent, but she's on the road.
