Race Car

With Steven starting to read and write words, the kids will often ask me throughout the day, "How do you spell ______?" I'll often sound out the various phonics sounds, but sometimes (after spelling who knows how many words) I'll just spell them out.

Hannah: "How do you spell 'Hannah'?"
Me: "H-A-N-N-A-H"
Steven: "How do you spell 'Hannah Grace Carr'?"
Me: "Yes, that's right, her full name is 'Hannah Grace Carr'. It's spelled 'H-A-N-N-A-H G-R-A-C-E C-A-R-R'."
Hannah: "No, I'm just a sister, I'm not a race car."
