Spelling Words

We have become "those people."  We spell words in front of our kids.  Words like P-O-O-L and C-O-O-K-I-E, if used at the wrong time, can cause an unnecessary issue.  It's amazing how quickly I have improved both my spelling of words and my audio interpretation of spelled words.  Something tells me that we will just continue to hone these skills over the years.  Soon enough, they will be able to figure out what we're spelling.  Maybe we'll pick up Pig Latin at that point.
