Melia Subtracted In HER HEAD!

Today I was cutting up an apple to take with us to dinner for Isaac, and Melia spotted me. We discussed her having one as well, and she said "There's only two left."

She walked over to the box to get one out, and said in a suprised voice "Mommy, where'd you get that apple? There's three in here!"

I told her I got it out of the bag... and then looked at her in amazement. "Why did you think there would only be two in the box? Did you know that there were three, and then subtract one in your head to get two?"

She says, nonchalantly, "Yep."

Woo HOOO! It's so encouraging to see her doing something that she can get, versus something that she struggles with (reading.) Thank you God, for little victories! Yea!
