Alexa's Writing

It is hard to be the younger sister. You watch your big sister do all of these cool things and you want to do them too. Alexa has been working so hard to learn to write. She is fascinated. She has a book that teaches children to write letters. She pulls the book of the shelf, sighs and says, "Time to do my homework." Mind you I have never told her she needs to do this... she just watches her sister complain about homework and wants to be able to complain too. She plugs away at it too. Stretching herself out on the floor and working away.

She gets so excited when she actually puts letters together and spells a word, because more often than not it doesn't really spell anything. "Mommy, what does atkfyd spell?" You hate to have to tell her that it isn't really as word. Tonight she was stretched out on the floor in the living room, and she told me she was working on a surprise for me. Here it is....

It says once there was a dog named Cabbie.

As you can see she was pretty proud of her writing.
