to the letter

Audrey came to me with tears in her eyes. "Mom, I'm not really good at drawing the little letters. Ella wrote them for them, but I still can't write them."

We sat down with sheets of penmanship paper and I wrote out the capital letters with their lower case counterparts. She practiced copying them on her own for a few minutes and then came to me where I was working in the kitchen.

"Mom!" she smiled. "You know why I want to practice this? So that when people see me do it, they'll say, That girl does that like she has the alphabet in her mind!"
