Heisig's stroke order in the 4th edition (and earlier) is wrong, so be careful -- first is the left-most vertical stroke, then draw the rest of the "sun" attachment as you would normally. In fact, if you just wrote it out as two suns with elongated sides, you'll get the stroke order exactly correct.
