Writing notes

Maggie's interest in writing comes and goes, but lately she's been very into writing things on her own. She has roughly a million and one notepads around the house, and she'll just grab one and start writing. This evening, we found her writing down the days of the week. We were impressed at her ability to write them out phonetically, even if only one was actually spelled correctly.

"MUNDAY"

TOOSDAY

TOOSDAY (again, for some reason)

WISDAY

FRIDAY

The paper is wrinkled on some because she got frustrated and crumpled up the paper (even on the correct one ... go figure).

She even wrote me a note on Wednesday, the day we had so many discipline problems. She was writing on a tiny Tinkerbell notepad, about 2"x3", so she had to put one word on each page. I saved the pages to scan in, and now of course I can't find them. But the pages read: "Magg" "will" "not" "bhav" (behave). I was proud of her ability to communicate a message like that in writing, albeit frustrated at the sentiment behind the notes.
