Brighton and his letters

Brighton has been able to recognize his ABC's for quite a long time now. He started with being able to tell you what one was what with his puzzle pieces and he's moved on to being able to recognize most uppercase now when you ask him. We've just started working on lowercase, though. So imagine my surprise when in the middle of lunch he says, "G-E-R-B-E-R." This was the first time he had told me what a string of letters were without me asking about each one. I was even more surprised when I saw where he was reading the letters - from his fork & they were in proper case, so the "e" through "r" were lowercase!
