What: Makela wrote her first letter!
I was minding my own business, trying to get some desperately needed laundry done by hanging up some damp clothing to air dry in our bedroom closet. Just around the corner and outside the bedroom door from me, Makela was busy working at her craft table. While I was hanging things up, she told me, "I'm making a happy note. It's for Daddy." Then, after a short pause, I heard this: "I'm writing a 'D' for Daddy." I figured she was scribbling her usual "writing" on her artwork. So imagine my shock when I finished the laundry, rounded the corner to take a look, and saw an actual "D" written on her page!
Are three-year-olds supposed to be teaching themselves to write? I'm guessing probably not. This kid continues to amaze me.
