I decided to write a note to Tatum this morning as she watched me pen it out as I spoke it.
I had two reasons for this.
One: I wanted her to know this is another fun and key way to communicate.
Two: I want to model writing while I talk so she could see words in action.
Morning:
Dear Tatum,
We are going to have FUN today.
Love, Mommy
Evening:
Dear Tatum,
I had FUN with you today.
I LOVE YOU.
Mommy
At the end of the day, she copied me and wrote back to me.
I even got a spiky-haired smily face. I am loved.
