This isn't the first time lately that Evangeline has surprised me like this, it's just the most recent.
Ana is ostensibly eating breakfast, Evangeline is playing with paper and a crayon, and I'm checking the weather forecast.
And Evangeline suddenly turns around and goes "Connie! Yook! UH AY!" (Connie, look, an a! It's very hard to write that one out so you understand what she said and what she meant, isn't it?)
And you know, it was an A?
We're not really working on this sort of thing with her, or we weren't until she started showing a real interest and knowledge of letters anyway. Just little things like, if I'm asking Ana (who just now caught on to this concept, and still has to go through the entire alphabet to figure out the answer) what goes "after E" or "after p", she'll call out the answer first. Or telling me that apple is the word that starts with A.
Too scary, really.
