Jul. 10, 2008: She can write! My 3yo can write!

My princess just wrote "MoM"!!! She got a piece of paper that she wanted to draw on for her friends and started writing her name. Except for one extraneous letter, she wrote her name! Although we have reviewed how to write each letter of her name, we've never done any drills. Other than her name, she has never learned to write from me. All of it is self-taught. I had heard of these things happening. I'm sure it helps to have an older sibling whose lessons you can overhear.

Then she said she wanted the Transformer to put his name down. As he finished writing his name, she said, "You're very good at writing your name." He said, "Thank you." ;) They can be so cute!

Then she said the drawing would also be from me. So she just wrote out "Mom." aaahhhhh!!! Her m's are missing the initial line down but otherwise, she did a great job. Now, remember, her 4th birthday is still 2 months away. Her brother is 6yo.
