It's time for me to brag. Abbie is very smart. She's four years, two months and twenty six days old. Today we sat down and started painting. The painting turned into drawing and writing. Then she wanted to write people's names. I spelled them and she wrote them. Above is the list of names she wrote. She also started numbering them. The G, L and W in the upper right corner was me showing her how to make those letters. These were the only ones she had trouble with. She didn't know all the numbers, but she knew that 10 came after 9 and she also knew how to make an 11.

Another thing that blew my mind tonight was on the drive home it started to rain, then it started to get sunny. I pointed to the sky and said it looks like over there it's sunny. She said, "Well don't we turn this way (pointed to the right) when we go home, so it should be sunny over there." That was about 2 miles from home and she knew that we were going to head towards the sun. It's probably me just making a big deal over it, but I was pretty impressed.
