Lucy is spelling! On Monday she spelled "peekaboo" out loud in the car. (You could have knocked me over with a feather -- I had no idea she could do that.) And tonight she just left a note outside her bedroom door for us to find, on which she attempted to spell things by herself!! I'm terribly excited. She has been copying the words she wants from books for a long time. This is the first time I've seen her attempt to spell things without asking for help and be willing to spell things wrong (which she did).
