Who would have thought that every conversation that I have with my 4-year old would be a spelling bee....For example, she heard me use the word assume in a sentence. She says to me, "Mom, what does assume mean?" So I make up some crappy definition to try and get her to understand. She attempts to use it in a sentence. "Keith assumes that he will get to play with his trains if he poops in the potty".....WOW, that was a good one. She used it correctly. Then she wants to know how to spell it. So we sound it out. A---SSSSSS--uuuuuu-mmmmm. Tricky word in the spelling department. I know that the words will get tougher and there are just some words I do not know a definition for, I just know how to use them in a sentence. I really think my daughter is trying to outsmart me....

Too cute! What about her wanting to know what a psychic is this weekend? Glad you were there to explain that one!
