THIS IS SO AWESOME!

1. Did I mention my consternation when I heard Ana saying "Awesome" all the time? I couldn't figure out where she picked it up, and then I discovered that it was from me. *I* say it all the time!

2. I was typing when Evangeline woke up, and she sat next to me and wanted to type too. So I asked her what word. Then I sounded the words out letter by letter and showed her the general area (row and half-of-keyboard) the letter was in - and she found the letters (the rrr letter or the sss letter) herself! COOL.

3. Then we did Starfall. We did M. One of the ones on M was mask. So I asked her "What do you think this is?" "Zombies?" So I sounded it out. Mmm. Aaaah. Sssss. K-k-k. Maaah. Sss. K. And she got it! "MAX!" The next one was masks. How does she say masks? "MAXES!" Maxes is a very consistent way to pluralize max, but of course mask isn't max. I find this inexplicably interesting, even though it's not actually. (Evangeline did the typing with help for this again. IS IT NOT TOTALLY AWESOME??? TELL HER AND ME HOW AWESOME IT IS!


i luv ana! ana luvs me!

IT IS VERY AWESOME AND TYPING IS VERY AWESOME.

I started typing in 1962. I had a manual typewriter. It was really Mama's but she let me use it. The keys are not in alphabetical order. Later, Iris learned touch typing in school.

I TYPED IN CAPITAL LETTERS, BECAUSE IT LOOKED MORE IMPORTANT. I used Mama's typing practice book.

P.S. It is a coincidence that the cat has the same name as me.
