---SON---SOL---SUN---ZON---
This happened today, when we came home around 17:00, and got the mail from the mailbox.
The mailbox was wet, and this turned out to be a wonderful opportunity to write with her finger, so Lotte started: "L-O-T-T-E”. While she wrote her name she pronounced the letters as out loud: "L-O-T-T-E”.
Then..... came the dutch variant of the word SUN, she wrote "SON" (should be ZON). This was a true breakthrough, and had I not have the knowledge that I have gained in the last months, I would not have perceived how big a breaktrhough this was.
Increadable... think this deaf girl that at the age of 4 after only two years with sound manages to break the reading code.....

Det som skjedde i dag, var at når vi kom hjem i 17-tiden, gikk vi for å hente posten i postkassen. Postkassen var våt, og den viste seg å være et ypperlig middel å skrive på med fingeren, og Lotte satt i gang: ”L-O-T-T-E”. Mens hun skrev navnet sitt sa hun lydene til bokstavene høyt: L-O-T-T-E.
Så....... kom det en nederlandsk variant av ordet SOL, hun skrev ”SON” (skal være ZON). Dette var et sannelig gjennombrudd, og hadde jeg ikke hatt den kunnskapen jeg har fått inne de siste månedene, hadde jeg ikke skjønt på samme måten hvor stor denne begivenheten egentlig var!!!
Helt utrolig.... tenk den døve jenta som ved 4-årsalderen og etter bare to år med lyd holder på å knekke lesekoden....
