apostrophe legend - 04:35 PM
(filed under 'smiley')

oh my goodness!

smiley was just hand writing a short note at the end of a longer one (all except that last bit dictated by him, written by me) written to the stars & the planets, etc (as you do), & he used a possessive apostrophe, correctly, all by himself!!

he then tried to put one on a plural, but just the fact that he thought about punctuation (& an apostrophe! my most favourite of all the misused punctuation marks) all by himself, just blows me away. i'm so damn impressed!

also, he wrote the apostrophe upside down, so that the tail was going up into the air, instead of downwards, but either way, i'm still amazed & impressed & totally proud. *smile*

in case you've forgotten, he only turned five last september.
