Leigh smashed her face two nights ago, loosening up a tooth and making her look like a plastic surgery patient after a lip plumping injection gone bad. Susannah took her to the dentist yesterday and Leigh started reading some books she had never seen before. We had assumed she was just repeating memorized books to herself when she snuck into Danny's room to read books by herself.
Here she is, reading Danny's word ring. His kindergarten teacher tells us these are first grade words that he is working on "sight recognition" of. Leigh has them down, without ever practicing a word ring before. She is wearing my safety glasses just because she can.
Needless to say, this development made us quite happy.
We went exploring across the street today, into a different marsh. Picking up a dead crab.Taking a photo souvenir. Hanako is my baseball buddy when Danny decides playing with the neighbor is more fun.She even gets the ball herself.
