An Essay by BabyGirl, age 6 (nearly 7)

This morning was not exactly wonderful. BabyGirl woke up too early on the wrong side of the bed. Grumpy pretty much sums it all up. She wore the same clothes to school today that she wore yesterday. I really need a way to convince her that jeans are all purpose & can be worn with multiple different tops. This is not a matched set.

Yesterday she brought home an essay she wrote after her field trip earlier this month. The first & second grade classes went to see Henry & Mudge in the big town to our south. This is it verbatim:

Henr and Mug
There are three reascus why I had fun on out field trip. Frist, we had fun. I got to play tic-tac-toe. Next, we ate lunch at The Center. I got to meat nou people. Finelly, we went to Victary Theater and Harey And Mudge. it was funny. In conclusion, these are the resascus why I had fun.
I love it! I'm sure there are old essays of mine hidden around here somewhere that look very similar.
One thing I've noticed since we started therapy is that her hand writing has improved by leaps & bounds. BabyGirl's penmanship wasn't the best in the world. Most of the time it was hardly legible. Now it's beautiful, especially for a 6 year old. I don't know if she's suddenly being more careful or if this is a result of the therapy. I'll have to ask Miss Emily what she thinks.

Thats a cute story and I do believe that it is better then my 11 year old is able to write right now. Good job!

I love it! I have a small and maybe silly question but who are Henry and Mudge? I guess I'll have to look them up.
