Can you see it? I was so excited because this is a new developmental stage for her in her writing! She is understanding that all words have a beginning sound and she can recognize and write those letters. Today she wrote two more pages for me: "I like to play with dad," and "I like to play with mom." For these ones, as you can see, she spelled out mom and dad!
Maybe it's because I taught Kindergarten and First Grade (so I know this is an important step developmentally), but this was a proud mommy moment for me. It's fun to see my own child going through this natural growth and learning for the first time! It's amazing how natural it really is; kids are naturally curious and will take baby steps in learning to read and write as they are ready.
