perhaps because she had kept using her left hand to write, she would write her name backwards. after having me correct her a few times, she now uses her right hand more and writes her name in the correct order. there was a book i had read to her once or twice, and i was surprised to see that she was able to tell me the name and occupation of the main character just by looking at the cover of the book.
i find it remarkable. as i had been when i was young, she tends to avoid things because of her fear of making mistakes, and i want to tell her not to worry, to stop at nothing. |
