I can spell Mommy

Okay, so Carter is in kindergarten. He's loving it by the way. He comes home every week having learned a new letter... or two. So the whole spelling thing is finally clicking and I can tell he's churning in his head sometimes thinking about words and sounds. Yesterday I was getting Kensley ready for bed & Carter comes up to me & says "I can spell energy Mommy". Okay, so how do you spell it? "N-R-G... energy!" (with enthusiasm) I thought about it a minute & technically, if you sound it out, he's right. Hilarious! Phonics is working for him.
