Paige has surprised me a few times in the past week or so about what she knows. The other day I was writing her name out and spelling each of the letters as I wrote them. She actually jumped in and said the letters with me. I had no idea she knew how to spell her name! I know she can recognize what her name looks like when she sees it on paper. But now if you ask her how to spell it she can tell you what the letters are!
She also can identify a good number of letters in the alphabet when she sees them written. A game we're starting to play when we're at a restaurant waiting for food is to point at the menu or whatever we have in front of us and ask her what certain letters are. Or we'll ask her to find an "S" on the page. She's pretty good at this one.
This morning, the surprise was when she asked me why we were going to school this morning and my response was "because it's Monday". Then she responded by saying "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...." She knows her days of the week!!! I had NO idea.
It's funny to think of what else she's storing up there that she hasn't shared with us yet :)
