"I want to do it"

I wonder if I'm the only mom with a two year old that fixes her own scrambled eggs? Lyla is in the stage of wanting to do EVERYTHING by herself. Grace went through this too. It is good for them but frustrating for me sometimes. She has a complete fit if I walk through a door without letting her open it herself for example. She wants to turn the faucets on by herself, push every button in sight by herself, pick out her clothes, pick out her books, buckle her carseat, and cook her own food! Lyla likes eggs for breakfast and she always wants to do it herself. Well, it's not the safest thing to let an almost 3 year old do. I have to let her try though. She does a pretty good job and we haven't had any major burns yet. Notice she's naked! That's our Lyla!
