Over the past couple days Zoe has been doing a lot of things that have been shocking me. Maybe I shouldn’t be shocked, and maybe it is normal for her age group. But I think she is advancing faster than normal.
For instance, today when i came home for a break, she was sitting outside at her picnic table working on a second puzzle. the first puzzle was sitting off to the side, completely put together. She put it together all by herself. This is a 25pc wooden puzzle with no frame to put the pieces in. I thought Jesse had helped her with it, but she did it all by herself!
Then a couple days ago she wanted to write on her computer(our old desktop). I pulled up wordperfect for her and enlarged the font so she could see it well. Then she told me she was going to write Zoe. I was on my laptop and turned to see what she was typing and she was holding the Z down. Then I asked what came next, and she said O and typed o, then E. Next she needed a new page, so i showed her how to use the enter button so she could get a new sheet. Then she typed mama, dada, nala & noah. I helped her spell them along the way, but wasn’t showing her where the keys were. I had no idea she knew her letters! Who knew my 2 1/2 yr old would be typing on a computer. She is growing up way too fast!!
and i’ll leave you with a pic of her in our favorite wrap that we had to sell today.
