Handwriting is on the wall - September 19, 2008

Well, not really, but Nolan, who is pretty good with alphabet letters and numbers, but never has liked drawing or writing that much, spontaneously grabbed the pen out of my hand while I was circling dates on his preschool schedule. Then he said "You are Doctor - uh - Mommy ummm Saxinger and I am Nolan Saxinger Hehir." And this is my name."

And then wrote his name, with a compromise in legibility caused by the pointy marker pen lifting the paper as he tried to write. But I can read it. It says "I appear to be growing up now Mom. Be proud of me but realize I am no longer your baby." See? There on the lower R hand corner of the Glenora Preschool Special Day schedule.
