WEEKLY LAYOUTS - WRITING YOUR LETTERS
I forgot to post the weekly layout this week. So here's one with the December AMM Kit.

David, one of the things I regret a lot is not spending more quality time with you. Especially now that I am working from home and we're together more often. I worry that maybe I am not teaching you enough. Maybe when you go to school, you'll be behind all those other kids. I want to make sure that you have all the opportunities you deserve.

A few weeks ago, I decided it would be a good idea for us to start practicing our letters. I knew you could already write your name but I wasn't sure how many of the other letters you could write. So we started practicing. Every day, we'd pick one letter and write it ten, twenty times. Over and over again until it came easily to you.

About two weeks into it, we did start to slack a bit and I was feeling guilty again, so, one night, you wanted to play with my beads and I made a deal with you, I said you have to sit and write one of each of the letters in the alphabet and you could come play with me. So you did. You sat down. And began to write. ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUvWXYZ.

You wrote them all. Perfectly.

I guess maybe I don't need to worry after all. You're doing wonderfully all on your own.
