Carving?!?

Sofia is very interested in learning how to read. She is constantly asking us: "How do you write this? How do you spell that?" The other day we were having dinner when she asked me: "How do you spell mom?" to which I promptly replied "In English, it is M-O-M. In Spanish it is M-A-M-I".

"M-O-M", she repeated. Only then did I notice that as I was telling her how to spell it she was CARVING it, with her fork, on the kitchen table.

Lionel and I were not happy with her. But we were certainly happy she at least expressed her artistic desires in the old kitchen table Vs the nice newer dinning room table. Needless to say, this reinforced why, although we certainly need it, we are not getting new furniture anytime soon.
