May your days be merry and bright and...
May all the action be caught on your secret Santa-cam.
Buddy boy has gone from a kid who wouldn't put pen to paper to a writing and drawing machine. There are lots of secret plans sketched out, lists made, and notes and letters written. It is a lot of fun to see him expressing his ideas this way. He is also spelling out words as he talks. I've always thought that part of his reluctance to write was his desire to spell words correctly rather than use the kid spelling they encourage at school. The teachers just want the kids to get the ideas on paper without worrying about the spelling conventions at this point. He reads very well and knows that words are supposed to be spelled a certain way. Now he is figuring it out and all the ideas are flowing.
