Maisie's Montessori school teaches writing before reading, which I never understood before yesterday, when Maisie said she wanted to write the word "hungry" in magnets on our refrigerator.
We sounded out the word - "hungry starts with 'huh.' What letter says 'huh'? Right, H says 'huh'!" We went through each sound in the word, though I had to help her with the vowels...
And at the end, here's what we got:
HUNGRY!
Maisie wrote that. I couldn't be more proud.

You are good writers, both of you. It must run in the family!
