A conversation between Maggie and Daddy:
(Oh, by the way, she’s decided to go back to Maggie – as of yesterday.)
Maggie: “When I grow up, I’m going to be a teacher writer. I’m going to teach boys how to write.”
Daddy: “Just boys, Maggie?”
Maggie: “Girls know how to write.”
Okay then.

Burke surprised us yesterday by writing his name…with lower case letters!
GO BURKE!!! 🙂
I’m also including the card he wrote for Daddy on Valentine’s Day. He knows what letter each person starts with, so he writes that down and then looks at me and says “And then..?”
He ended up writing out everyone’s name on Daddy’s card.
