d and an a and another d

This morning, David asked where his dad was and then answered his own question, "Dad's at work."

I explained to him that dad goes to work so that me and David could be together and play and to buy us things we need to be happy and healthy.  He agreed that was really nice of daddy and I told him maybe when we got home we could write dad a letter to say thank you.

Dave thinks a letter means the alphabet.  So...he said, "Gon-write him a letter.  Write D...and an A.... and another D."

"David! Did you just spell dad?!"

Matter-of-factly, "Yes."

"I'm so proud of you!"

"Oh.  Thank you."

Hah, love this kid.  Always a surprise.
