Lately I have been constantly amazed at what Kamri knows and can do. Regrettably, I have not been as good at sitting down with her and teaching her her letters, colors, numbers and such. I try to I don't do as much as I did with the older kids. I'll find things I can do with her while we're in the car or at the store, but writing letters is different than being able to recognize them. Sometimes I'll sit down to "teach" her something I don't think she knows quite yet and she just gets right to it. The other day I was determined to teach her to write her name. Guess what? She already knew how.

We sat down with a whiteboard and I asked her, "What's the first letter of your name?" She said, "Mmmmm...."K". Then she proceeded to write a "k". Same thing with the "a". She knew the "m" was next but was having a hard time picturing it so I drew one in the corner and she said, "OK" and just drew it. She knew the "r" and "i" and drew them.

I really had no idea she knew how to write her name. She loves when she sees letters that are in her name and is quick to point them out to us. She's grown up a lot in the last few months. She constantly makes me laugh and amazes me with what she knows and can recall. I'm having a lot of fun with her.
