Oliver has been working on writing his name, first and last, for the last month or more. His motivation, besides pride and the fact that he could technically apply for a credit card now, was to get a library card. His daycare takes the city bus to the public library every Monday. Kids that can write their name get to apply for a card, check out books and take them home. H U G E motivation when you are 3. Actually, it would work for this 39 year old (I can say that for one more week!) if I hadn't already mastered this skill. Today, Oliver did it. This is the actual Richland Library application that we'll turn in this weekend. He is more than proud of himself.

Yes! I can't think of a better motivator. And that's quite impressive. My 5-yr old's can't write his last name, and the "Walter" is pretty shaky.
