As an OT mom who teaches handwriting, how can I not be totally impressed with this? Plus, she did it while I was at a dinner "date" with a bunch of fellow therapists. It's so weird. I've never even pointed out the lines to this child or shown her how to use a tripod grasp. Even weirder, in the age of computers, I'm not sure she's seen much of my writing between lines. Most of the little chicken scratches that I do are on plain, unlined paper. Granted, I'm sure this isn't the "norm" and she'll go back and forth a gazillion times before I even introduce handwriting to her. But, I just thought I'd "brag" on this little random happening from my two year old! It just amazes me that I can work on something like this for literally hours with an older child and yet she can just "do" it unprompted. It simply humbles me and reminds me that God really did give us all different abilities and strengths.
