Georgia has recently begun to read. Full on reading of books on her own. She sounds out all the words herself, and is so proud when SHE can tell ME the story.
So along with reading the words in these books, she has come to be very curious about punctuation. She is always asking what something is, what it does, why it is there, etc. But the other day we have this conversation, which amazes me and then cracks me up.
Georgia: "Mommy, I know what exclamation marks do. Do you?"
Me: " You do? What do exclamation marks do?"
Georgia: "Exclamation marks make things exciting."
Me: Silent, wondering where her little brain came from, and if it might burst from having so much information in there. And then, "Yup, you are exactly right."
Where does she get these things?

Wow, she's reading at such a young age. She sounds adorable. (found you through The Mom Blogs)

Too cute! It is a mystery how their little brains figure things out...all.by.themselves .
