Learning to read


Today after pre-school, Kekoa came home and told me he wanted to learn to read. After years of repeating the ABC's, learning what sounds each letter makes (thanks to some help from Leap Frog DVD's), and countless book read out loud to him, he was ready to do it himself. I had to hunt through our little library of books to find something simple that woudn't frustrate him. Here's what we found. We sat down and I helped him as he sounded out the words. It was so cute to see him giggle, almost giddy-like as he realized what the word was after sounding it out. He did a great job. What a fun milestone for both of us : )
