Syracuse

Here we are up in Syracuse, NY. Linda has an aunt, uncle, and two cousins up here we are visiting. Linda has had a great time playing with them and enjoying Tom's family. She has really enjoyed playing in the snow too. We went bowling this morning as well. She initially didn't want to bowl at all, but then warmed up to it and had a good time.

Linda's cousin, Collin, received a Tag from LeapFrog. I was showing Linda the Tag to see if she liked it. There was a page where the book said to touch a word on the drum. She touched the word "rug." Then the book asked her to touch the word "bug." She looked at the words on the drum, and started to point to the wrong word. She then stopped, sounded out the word "bug" and touched the word "bug." It was the neatest thing! She sounded out the word to see what letters she should be looking for. For quite a while now I've been giving her words to read, which she has done. But I had never given her words to pick out of a group. It was just a really neat to see her do that.
