A little inside joke for all of you ESPN junkies with the title of the post (wink, wink, Brady). Lately, Quincy has been doing a lot with words. He likes to use his Nitro Jr. laptop (thank you Townsend clan) to make words and do other word related activities. He loves to make words from his plastic letters of words he sees around the house. He’s always asking us how to spell this-and-that word for him. I can’t remember how many times I’ve spelled ‘cupboard’ ‘caravan’ and ‘wardrobe’ over the past several days. Tonight, Quincy read his first word.
The image with this post is where Quincy recognized and read a word all by himself. See the word ‘BOOK’ all in caps and in red? Yeah? Quincy saw it too and said “Mommy, that says ‘book’. B-O-O-K.”
I’m sure it won’t be too much longer until he can follow our very basic cryptography, i.e. the spelling out of words we don’t want him to understand. When he gets to that point, we’ll have to switch to our fancy-schmancy college words.
So how many points is Stat Boy giving for Quincy’s first word?
(again, an ESPN reference for those of you confused)
He got 5 points for it, but then got nailed with a double mute for getting cocky.
