This is tough

So Nick LOVES writing notes. Many days he will "mail" us letters and we have to walk to the mail box or front door numerous times to pick up our letters. Most of the time we can make our way through the letter, but I'll tell you, it is tough! If he didn't request we read the note aloud, I think we would be ok, but he does. He gets disappointed if we can't read what he writes or if we don't put it in the correct sequence he hears it in his head, and if we mess up he says "Geez, can you not read!" - haha! I just love these challenges with him because I see him learning and being VERY excited about his new capabilities. Last night he asked if I would play a game with him and after five minutes of making a sign for the game here is what I was requested to read (ALOUD):



"My name is Nick. Step up try to win $6666...... billion dollars. I got some" He also drew a pictures of what the game consisted of on the bottom left.



After a couple minutes (I'm getting faster) I figured out what it said and we started our game of hitting the balloon with a stick for money. I just had to capture these sweet moments, as I know he will only get better, smarter, and older, so these days are limited.
