So Smart

Courtney gets it. Even when I don't think she does, she gets it. On a recent Tuesday I read Courtney a page on “Biology” and we talked about it and did a little gluing activity about it. I thought that the info had gone over her head, but I was glad that she at least “heard” it. A few days later her teacher came to see what we have been working on for school. Courtney was in the other room and as the teacher and I were talking about what we have been doing for school, I asked Courtney “What 2 parts of science make up Biology?” She didn’t hesitate, stands right up and says “Botany and Zoology”. I passed a shocked look to the teacher and then said to Courtney “What is Botany?”. She replied “plants and trees”. I then asked “What is Zoology?” to which she sayed “pets and animals”...she said it in a voice like "Come on, Mom, that's so easy!" She really is a smart little girl who is learning so much all the time.
