Lee and I are the first to admit that sometimes, Emily gets lost in the shuffle. She is so busy trying to grow up as fast as her sister that sometimes we forget that she is only three. We are not as hyper-vigilant about her school progress as we were with Elizabeth, in part because Elizabeth made such tremendous progress during her second year of preschool that we can hardly remember what she learned during her first year. The other day, Emily drew a picture for me to hang up at work - and then she wrote her name on it - no prompting, no hints about how to spell her name, she just wrote it. It was the first time that either Lee or I have seen her make letters of any kind, and we were quite proud, so much so that I immediately took a picture with my cell phone.
