Letter Writing

Landon is getting to where he wants to write all the time. He especially wants to write if there is paper and some form of writing utensil around but he lately has been writing outside with the sidewalk chalk. When he sees paper and pen he usually says "write my name". I don't necessarily think he has been formally taught how to write every letter, just a few like the letters in his name, momma, Dada, maw maw, poppa, and gamma. When he has been writing these someone else's hand is helping him write them and explaining them as they write them. Right now he has the letter A down pat by himself, he will go "up down across" as he is writing it. Well last night he really surprised me with is letter writing while we were side. He of course did plenty of A's, but then he did some L's, N's some D's, M's, O's and then he threw out some W's, B's and Q's. I guess his little mind is like what they say and is really a big sponge and he really does absorb what we do with him and just applies them when he is ready. I wish I had the camera with me so that I could have captured it on video because he was so excited that he was making letters and he was grinning from ear to ear.
