Lauren & Sam

It’s not all caviar and baby wipes, mate

Yuh

We practiced writing last night. We started with ‘Lauren’, focusing on using a little ‘a’, then moved on to other names (Lauren and I did anyway; Sam stalled at his sister’s name, though he did a surprisingly good job of it). The highlight, apart from the little ‘a’, was learning to put ‘y’ in the proper place. Lauren has a tendency to write it so that the tail is level with the bottom of the other letters. Once superdaddy explained that it’s really like a ‘u’ with a monkey’s tail hanging down, the written page was the mollusc of her choice. For the next hour at least.
