Today John read his first book. How much there is for him to learn and discover in the world of written things! Literacy is truly a wonderful gift. As I listened to him sound out the words, I imagined a whole new world opening up for my little boy. Hooray!
Now we need to work on bigger words so that he can devour whatever books he wants to at the local library, before these few weeks slip away and we return to a place where books are harder to come by.
Congratulations, John! Isn't it a wonderful, rewarding feeling to watch your child start to read? Mom
ReplyDeleteYes, Mom, it is. And it is precious to see how excited John is to realize he can read now! :)
