I've got a writer!
I am so proud of him! Jeremiah wrote his name completely unassisted! There were no dots to trace. I didn't tell him the letters to write. I didn't hold his had. Earlier in the day he was on the computer playing a game and it said, "type in your name" I glanced over and there he was typing it in. We'd been playing a game - for a while now- where we cut out all the letters in his name and scrambled them up and he had to put them in order. Anyhow, later in the day he got a white board and marker and announced that he was going to write his name. I said ok and sat back to watch. And he did it! Then I asked him to write it on a paper so we could put it up on the refrigerator. Once again he did it. I am a very proud mother. I went to the doctor yesterday and was bragging about him. She asked how my kids were and if Jeremiah went to preschool or anything yet. I said, "he doesn't go to school, but he is learning" She was impressed and said, "wow that's great for three, and he has a long name - its not like he's writing Bob." Anyhow, some of you already got a personal call from Jeremiah - "i wrote my name with no dots!" But to the rest of the world he's doing great.
