I hope this isn't obnoxious yet

Y'all, I just have to say I am so unbelievably impressed with R's attempts to sound out words and write. She resists reading and trying to read, but she loves, boy does she love to write. My mom sent both kids some really fun workbooks (I know that sounds like an oxymoron but both kids have been having a ball, so there!) and R spent some time yesterday working on one of them. She would trace each letter a few times and then trace the word.

By the time she got to K, she totally got the idea and instead of going straight to tracing, she came up with two "k" animals and wrote them down herself-- "KAGAROW" and "KWiLA".

SERIOUSLY! I am SO IMPRESSED!
