WOW! Spelling!

We were at the lake today to celebrate a graduation in the family with Dan's parents. While waiting for a boat ride (and to keep his mind off the stuffed animals he was obsessed with) I started having Jackson follow familiar requests:

"Touch your nose"
"Touch your knees"
"When is your birthday?"
"Where do you live?"
-----"Spell zoo"----
This begins a list of words which Jackson spelled without any thought:
zoo, jumps, boy, (these he's been able to spell for a while) but then he spells: cat, dog, mom, dad, Jackson, barn, shark!!!!
WOW!!
We were all very impressed. Just had to share it!
