Mind Stretch

Sometimes I'm so amazed at Cameron's intelligence. The other day, Max wanted to cut stuff, so I rolled out some wrapping paper for him. He quickly was distracted with something else, so Cameron decided to use the paper for his own purposes. Completely on his own, he sat down and wrote a story. And although it uses "invented" spelling, he actually spelled a lot of the words correctly, and I could still understand most of the phonetically spelled words. He first wrote a story about all the things a little boy named David was doing wrong. Then he wrote a story all about his favorite things. This to me was impressive.

But other times, I must question whether there are any braincells working up in that head of his.
