For anyone (JODI) who may have forgotten this concept, here it is:
HOMOPHONE: noun; a word that sounds the same as another but has a different meaning and often a different spelling. Example: maid and made.
Just joking you, little Jo, I will be calling later to see if Abby Kate has learned this new word:)
And, just for the record, I couldn't remember if it was homophone or homonym that meant "sounds the same, but is different". So, we now know that homonym is like "mean and mean"- same word, two different meanings! ie: I don't mean to be mean to you, Jodi!!
I love you all, sisters!!
