while i’ve been working on my next project, unpacking all the toys that have been in boxes in the basement, sorting, selling, and organizing, i gave nadia this little activity, and walked over and noticed she had done half of the clock correctly!  I was happily surprised she even had any idea of where the numbers went on a clock.

nadia has always been a little ahead, speaking 4-5 word sentences at 18 months, full sentences at 2, knows her alphabet and can sometimes count to 20.  Camden taught Nadia the plus, minus and equal signs, and she’ll regularly show us those. She’s also picked up the words to “The Living Christ” as we have been memorizing that during scripture study.  The only difficult part of all this wonderful things are the negotiations that happen with such a child who can speak and express herself so well!
