Yesterday, as we were waiting for Alexis's mom to arrive, Cassi's Pa and Nana arrived. Everyone sat down while the kids were playing the PS2.
I'm working on cleaning up the place because, boy was it a mess! I had already taken Cassi's crayons, markers, craft scissors, and coloring pads to her room. Now, all that was left was blankets, pillows, and such. As I was talking to mom, she starts to tell me,
"You remember last year when I got Cassi a B-A-S..."
"I know what you're talking about. And this year you got 2." I tell her back, right with Cassi sitting at Nana's feet.
"Yep."
As this quick conversation is going on, you see Cassi with her eyes toward her brain, in a thinking mode.
"You know, your grandchild is trying to figure out what you are spelling." I said to mom.
"Yes, she's no dummy you know."
"Correct. She's no dummy. That's why I stopped you."
Cassi was trying to figure out by spelling what we were spelling and trying to sound out the word. Yes, folks. She probably would have figured out Nana was spelling, "BASKETS."
We won't be able to spell things out in front of her anymore. She's able to learn to figure out the words on her own. First step to independence (behind walking, eating, dressing, etc.)
Thought everyone would have a good laugh!
Lots of love,
Cathy

Yeah, I heard about all the baskets she is getting this year, you guys are REALLY over doing it!!
Bring out the code words!! That's what my parents did when we could figure out what they were spelling. :)
I can just picture the gears of her mind working. If she got that K she might have figured it out!
