Amazing Little Brains

"School" has been difficult lately with a miserably-teething 3-month-old who wants to be held all day long. But that doesn't mean the brains aren't engaged. Ashlyn (2 1/2) can spell her way through an entire book (she'll literally look at each page and say "T-H-E D-O-G I-S B-L-A-C-K" or whatever.) and Jessica (also 2 1/2) knows all of her letters and can do each sound.

As I was leaving my 4-year-old's room tonight after putting him to bed, he said, "Do you know what loud noises are called? Cacophony."

Goodnight, Matthew...

Guess I'll quit feeling guilty about not doing much organized education these last few weeks...
