Once again, here are the photos my son took of his "found" O's. As you may imagine, it is quite easy to find a letter O around. I limited him to just a couple since I knew he'd otherwise have a memory card full of O's. The first photo below is of the awesome hollow log at Jester Park (that place is a treasure trove of found letters!). The second is from the rug in our home library.
Before I blog about the letter P, I'm going to share a little something for Mother's Day. :)
