Two days ago, Ana was looking at the microwave.

[conuly]

And she very carefully spelled out s-t-a-r-t. So I gave her the word, of course.

Today, she did it again, and I asked her "What does that spell?" and she told me!!!!

Isn't that the coolest thing ever?

(Of course, mention something like this to my mom, and she goes "You know, you were reading at that age!" Like Ana's somehow slow or something. Jenn wasn't even reading until she was six, and that's normal. (And probably part of why I learned to read that same year, y'know?) Sometimes, my mother can be a bit irritating.)

I think I phrased my first comment badly--I was placing more emphasis on the "well, it's not so surprising" part and less on the "she's taking after you" part. That worked better in my head.
