With amazement

So today I am not feeling well coming down with a cold, and we know when we are not feeling well the kiddos tend to get on our nerves a bit more then usual. I was laying in bed with Katelynn watching a movie in my room. It was very quiet and I asked Nicholas what he was doing? He was drawing on his DoodlePro. I asked him to show me what he was drawing and I was shocked to see what he had done.
Katelynn was like OH MY GOSH MOMMY , and couldn't believe it either. Nicholas had wrote his first and last name all by himself.


He actually wrote his name all by himself, and very legible. He did make one mistake he spelt his first name Nickolas instead of Nicholas. But still..........I was very amazed. His B also kinda looks like a G but heck, who cares, I can't believe he actually did it. So I asked Katelynn if she did it, she said no, I asked Rick if he wrote it, and he had not he was out in the living room, I even had them write out Nicholas's name on another one we had just to compare and no ones handwriting matched what Nicholas had done......I asked Nicholas if he had wrote it, and he said yes, that he wrote his name, and was very excited about the fact. Of course I had to take a picture, thank god for digital camera's. Later I erased what he had wrote and tried to get him to write it again, and he would not, I believe he felt pressured so he wouldn't do it again.

Anyways, I know he knows his name, I have him practice tracing it all the time, he recognizes the letters in his name, I just had no clue that he could actually write his name with no help......I am so proud of him. He is so ready to start preschool on Tuesday.
