Home of the next Einstein







Well here is a picture of our new home in Lumberton and some of the many new words Lucas has been spelling in it! Lucas and I moved in here about 6 weeks ago from a small apartment and it has been so nice to have more space, a washer and dryer, as well as a yard! We need some grass planted, as you can see, but it is a new home so there is a lot of yard work left to be done!

The story with the letters (the larger ones pictured in the first two word pics) is they are made for the bathtub- they cling to the wall. Well he got a set last summer (at 2.5 years) and started lining them up in order A-Z and we thought- he is brilliant! He is only 2.5 years! Then he spelled Lucas at 2.5 years with these! It has just multiplied from there- he now spells things he hears, not good, and things he sees on TV, in books, at the store, etc.

When he spelled Enterprise he became very upset because he had only two "E's" to use and he needed 3! That is why it is spelled wrong, but he knew it was wrong. He has also spelled things like Embassy Suites, Everlast, peoples names like Julia, Lucas, YaYa, Emma, etc., and way too many other words to mention.

I will keep yall posted when he spells new things- they happen almost daily!
