Write Your Name

In school, we have been focusing on three things every day with the boys.

1. Colors.

2. Shapes.

3. Writing their names, which they call "Write Your Name" time.

We do these over and over and over. They get stamps on their hands, stickers on their pages, and yummy treats for success.

Today we hit a first and I just have to brag about it. Today, I handed them both a blank piece of paper and told them to write their names. To my amazement, they both came back with their names written completely correctly in capital letters. I about fell over. After over three months of intensive daily practice, we have arrived!!!

  10. Hey,

    You don't know me, but I've been reading your blog for some time now. I plan to adopt from Russia in the next few years, and was given your blog as I wish to adopt twins. I hope you don't mind a random stranger reading up about your family and your adoption experience. I felt I should take the time now to kinda let you know I do read, so if you wish me to stop you can let me know.

    That being said, Good job to the boys. Writing their name is awesome!
