Spontaneous Spelling

Aria does amazing things sometimes that leave Anita and I dumb struck.

Tonight after Aria and I got home from our respective days we were playing in the lounge together with Asher. We had been playing soccer together and had all sat down to have a break. We’d been singing some nursery rhymes and wiggles songs together and Anita had just come in to join us.

We’d just finished singing humpty dumpty and I asked Aria if there was any more nursery rhymes that she wanted to sing. Her answer was a simple one and quite surprising. Aria said “A R I A”.

Anita and I had smiles burst onto our faces and stared at each other and Aria in disbelief. After we had congratulated Aria and clapped her amazing spelling, she happily spent the next five minutes repeating her name and even let us film her saying it.

She really is a clever girl and never fails to amaze us with what she comes up with.

One day of preschool and she is already spelling her name, just imagine what she will do with a month!

Oh- and THIS is the colour Aria wants to paint her room. She choose it at Bunnings on Wednesday and keeps asking when we can start painting her room.
