These girls...

Recently, Abby and Brinly have discovered the joy of talking in bed before they go to sleep. In some ways it bothers me because it's taking them A LOT longer to fall asleep and we sometimes end up with some really grumpy girls. On the other hand, I love that they're such good friends and have a lot to talk about.

One night Trevor and I could hear them talking away long after their bedtime so we eavesdropped. I was interested to see what they had to talk about this late at night. I think we were both surprised to hear the following:
Brinly: How do you spell "magic"?
Abby: m..a...g...i...k
Brinly: No, one letter's wrong.
Abby: m...a...g...i...c
Brinly: That right. How do you spell "princess"?
So instead of telling secrets in the late hours, these two prefer quizzing each other on spelling words!

Awesome. I mean, I guess it is lousy if they are grumpy because of spelling, but it could be SO much worse. At least they'll get things right on the future spelling tests...

That is so cute, Trish! I think it's great that they're such good friends.
