Madeleine Writes

Madeleine practiced more sounding-out of words today as she attempted to write answers to questions I asked her. 



Question 1: What is your favorite color?
Answer: PAG

Madeleine got angry when I asked her, in amusement, "Your favorite color is pag?"  I then spoke the word "pink" and enunciated the final "nk."  Did my little perfectionist want to try and write it again?  Nope.  Hot Cross Angry Exes through the letters.  FAIL.  No second chances.


Question 2: What is your favorite animal?
Answer: BANE

This time I wizened up.  "Your favorite animal is a bunny?  Awww!" 

A white bane with pag eyes


Question 3: What would you like to name your child if you ever have a daughter?
Answer: MOMMY

TOTAL cop-out, Madeleine.  She just picked a word she knows how to spell because she can't HANDLE about being incorrect.  But whatever.  I look forward to being a grandmother to Mommy someday.


Question 4: What is your favorite tv show?
Answer: MI LETHEL PON

Ethan and I are quite fond of Mi Lethel Pon too, as far as kids' shows go.  Ethan wears his Mi Lethel Pon t-shirts with pride and carries around his Mi Lethel Pon wallet without the slightest embarrassment.  Good choice, Madeleine!


And finally, Question 5: Which is your favorite pony?
Answer: PEG PIY

Aha!  Madeleine solved the dilemma over how to spell "pink."  It's not PAG, it's PEG!  And I should have guessed that Peg Piy is her favorite pony, seeing as her favorite color is pag.


Peg Piy, from Mi Lethel Pon.
