POP

On the way home from a little tennis practice at the park, Bubba had his magna doodle out and was working. All of a sudden he calls out that he just wrote the word 'POP' on it. Now he has never figured out the spelling of a word on his own, let alone written it out by himself... so to my amazement I turned around and saw in fact that he had spelled it out.

My response, "Yes you did, good work son."

His reply, "COOL."

He went on to write several more words... apparently the lightbulb finally clicked on upstairs and he is ready to move on!
