I admit I am hopelessly behind with the news. But this pressed itself on me and insisted on being publicized. Of course Iain should have been eating some supper, but he wasn't. He decided he needed paper and a marker, and wouldn't be persuaded even by the promise of something sweet. So be it: we let him draw. And suddenly a little voice at the end of the table said 'I for Iain'! We looked up, and there he was, holding up the paper, having written a very clear capital 'I'.
No sooner had we gasped in awe over (and applauded) the I than Iain put the paper back down and started another drawing, explaining 'T for Thomas'. And there it was--a T.
Now I have no idea whether a 3.5-year-old is supposed to be able to do that. I don't care. We thought it was pretty cool.
