Guess what Amelia has learned to do?
She can write her name! We've been practicing writing the letter A at home for a while now, but she surprised me yesterday by being able to write all the other letters by herself. Her preschool teacher said they worked on writing names a little yesterday, but she was surprised Amelia could do it all by herself, too.
And as you can see, she is now adding stick bodies to her smiley faces. The stick person on the right is Amelia and the person on the left is me. Amelia told me that we are sitting with our legs spread out wide and we are shaking hands. She also said the the dot on the top of her head is her forehead, the dot under it is her nose, the dot just under that is her philtrum (that's your word of the day - philtrum: the midline groove in the upper lip that runs from the top of the lip to the nose), and the dot under her mouth is her chin.
So impressive! I have a feeling Natalie will have a hard time with her name.
ReplyDeleteWell, Natalie's name is a little long, but at least the letters are easy to write, right? But yes, I bet Noah will be able to write his name before Natalie.
