Spelling Lessons

Sam really, really loves everything to do with the alphabet. We are always doing one of his (many) alphabet puzzles, reading books, or spelling words. This afternoon I was feeling pretty full of myself and the progress Sam was making. I thought I'd show off to Eric.

I got Sam's attention and said, "What does S-A-M spell?"

"Sau," he replied happily.

"What does S-T-O-P spell?" I continued.

"Stop!" he yelled.

Encouraged, I said, "Okay, what does D-O-G spell?"

Smiling broadly, Sam replied, "Mama!"

The kid is a traitor.

I'm sorry, that is hilarious. Sam has a v. wicked sense of humor.
