Nora Lee's imagination has exploded in the last several months. Entire days can go by that we are around home living in the world of Harry Potter, princesses, magic wands, monsters and dragons. She loves the fight between good and evil and takes her role very seriously as the defender of good.
She gets married, has children, people die, people live. It's quite incredible to observe. Often Matt and I will play in the game and then go about our own business while she continues.
Nora Lee loves books and is very interested in writing. She can write a fair amount from memory. She will say, "I want to write 'The monster is coming!'" and we will spell it all out for her verbally. There are still lots of letters that she needs us to write for her or show her in a book and then she can write them on her own. She is in the process of learning that there are upper case and lower case letters but still doesn't know when to use which one.
Below is a book she created. She is responsible for the story and how it's written, Matt just wrote the words and helped with some of the pictures.
The title is "The Fun is Repeated."
Once upon a time, Rapunzel, Harry Potter and Nora Lee were lost in a monster's cave!
The monster appeared!
The monster's husband came out a chased everyone!
They made friends with the monster.
They had a birthday party for Nora!
And they lived happily ever after...
