They other day I was sitting next to Aubree watching a movie when she started to make a funny sound. Ah Ah Ah Ah then she would stop and then start again, Ah Ah Ah. Then she looked at me very seriously and said, "mom I am pretty sure my name doesn't start with an A, it sounds more like an O". It took me a minute to figure out that in her mind A only makes one sound, and O sounds more like the A in her name. Trying to not confuse her I explained that some of the letters make more than one sound, and some even sound a lot a like. However I was impressed that she figured out what letter she thought her named started with. Boy is she in for a world of confusion later in life when things start to have silent letters. Good thing she doesn't need to worry about that for a while
