Is this bad?!!!

Lately, Linzi is obsessed with the letters, their sounds, how to spell, writing words, etc. Every conversation, no matter what the topic, always ends up being a discussion of all the sounds of the words we are using. It is so exciting to see her little mind clicking and the light bulb is coming on. So tonight, I am completely focused on a video project and listening to the election results. I noticed Linzi flitting around on my side but didn't pay too much attention - even when she asked me to tell her again when we use the silent "e". I had no idea what she was doing until after she left the room and I reached over to the table for a little sippy and found this. Unbeknownst to me, she was walking around the room labeling several things with post it notes, including this: LOL! I sure hope she doesn't share her new spelling word with her preschool teacher tomorrow! :) Notice how she spelled it the way it sounds, then realized maybe there is a silent "e", asked me and then wrote it the right way? My funny AND smart little girl!

Thanks for sharing such a funny story about Linzi and real life. That's great and it made me laugh out loud. She's a little pistol and it's moments like these that remind us what little sponges they are...

Your blog and posts are so pretty and thoughtful, Sheryl. Love it!

Have a good weekend with love,
Lisa
