M-A-R-A

Last week, one of Mara's teachers told us that Mara could spell her own name. We figured John just misheard her because we had never heard her spell her name, but she was getting very good at identifying Ms when she sees them as well as writing them. Well, Friday night, we were driving around, and Mara was playing with her phone. She was saying letters as she was pushing buttons, and then it registered that she was saying "M-A-R-A." So, I guess she can spell her name. :)

The neat thing about all of this is that just a few short weeks ago at her 3-year doctor's appointment, she didn't even recognize the letter M at that time. Since then, I have been working with her on the letter M as well as the rest of the letters in her name. It looks like it didn't take long for them to sink in.
