"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life;
to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau

B-U-G

Ethan is always writing letters in the air. That is the way his teacher has been helping him learn to write. I think it's a great method. The other day he said "I want to write bug, Mom". He kept saying this and I figured he meant that he wanted to write it in the air. He got frustrated and then left the room. When he came back he was holding a piece of paper that had "bug" written on it. He had done it himself, all on his own. Got the paper and everything. I almost hit the floor. Then he came back with a picture of a robot with a smiley face. He said he wanted to make the robot happy. (By the way, he draws the bad robot from "The Incredibles") He is getting so smart and so big! He is exploding with new skills and new vocab. He always amazes me. Oh yeah, he wanted to me to take pictures of him with his bug and robot.

Isn't it fun? I love watching them learning more. I dread the day that we can't spell out what we don't want them to hear. Tina is learning way too much Spanish from Dora for us to even try that! I guess it's up to pig latin:) How exciting for Ethan to spell on his own!
