I was in the kitchen doing dishes while the girls were right in the living room playing two weeks ago. Sophia was sitting on the couch with her mini magna-doodle that she can't seem to put down lately. She takes it in the car, in every room of the house, on the potty, etc. It's getting really beat up and I think I'm going to get her a new one. Anyway, she yelled to me, "Mom, I made an A!!!" This is what I saw:



I'm so proud of her and she was SO proud of herself. I didn't even know she could write that letter! I have taught her a bunch of other letters (E, H, I, T, V, Y, F, L, O, X) and she knows how to spell SOPHIA and STELLA and STOP but can't write them yet. She has a hard time with S. I think the curvy letters throw her off. She has known her letters since she 18 months old (capital ones) and her lower case for at least a year now. She spells out everything she sees...signs, writing on shirts, magazines, books, etc. Anyway, her A is great! She just loves anything to do with words and letters. She loves to have us tell her what words say and wants us to use our finger to point to the words as we read them in her books. I will not be surprised if she's reading before she's 4 only because her interest in books and words is so intense. I think both of my girls would be happy without any toys if they could have an unlimited supply of books! Guess they take after Mom and Dad because we LOVE to read! Now if only I could find the time to do it as often as I would like without my house becoming disastrous!
