Do you remember how much I LOVE grade one spelling?? Its easily my favorite thing about her age and stage. Its really just not the point of writing at this point. Its more about getting your ideas across and practicing your letters and sounds. It seems to build a lot of confidence, while giving me a stomach ache from holding in my laughter. It is SUCH a good part of kids growing up.
Today, Wavy was writing on her boogie board and I was elbow deep in a poopy diaper change when she informed me that she was going to write a story and I was going to read it. Which seemed like something I wasn’t going to be able to do in the moment. She said maybe just a sentence. “A few words, ok, mom?” Ok Wave.
And I was given this.
I stared for a goooood minute before I said I was sorry, and that I couldn’t quite read it. Luckily, she was super proud of that fact this time around, and read it to me! It was french!!!

Rain boots!!!
And I thought that was pretty stinking cute.
