Boo! The Ghost!

A ghost made an appearance at Julia's school this year. Well, I guess, "appearance" is the wrong word since no one actually saw the ghost! But every time her teachers read a particular book, the lights in the classroom went off and the kids were convinced that it was their class ghost - Boo!

This is Julia's portrait of Boo that she created on our driveway:


You'll notice, on the middle of left side of the picture, that she wrote his name as BBO. I didn't comment on this when she did it - impressed that she was just trying to spell different words herself. But I was even more impressed the next day when she was looking at her drawing again and without any input from anyone else she said, "wait, that's wrong!" and then went and got the chalk, crossed out the extra "B", and added an "O"! Wow!
