Can Yu Reed This?

Okay, maybe I need to change the name of this blog to something like "Showing off Emily"; she is getting way too much attention here, and my other kids are probably feeling left out. But I had to post this. My sweet friend, PlainJane, has been graciously and patiently emailing my four-year-old. Emily sits here and composes her own responses. PlainJane wrote first in purple, them Em responded in black. See if you can decipher her phonetic spelling, lol! (It can't be any worse than "whole language" method, can it?)

dear plainjane

She sounds like a hoot!

LOL, she is doing VERY WELL! I could easily read everything except the last one - thanks for the translation. She is so quick on her responses too - I don't know if I can keep up with her. lol I'm going to have to think up another one for her.
