My baby can read!!

Well he's not really a baby anymore, but he's still my baby, and he read these 3 books to me today!!  I was so shocked and proud.  Landon has known sight words and basic letter sounds since preschool, but sad to say since he started kindergarten I hadn't really worked on reading with him.  I read him a bedtime story and books here and there, but hadn't had him try to read to me.  This afternoon we were spending some time together while Brody was napping and I thought I should get a couple books and see how he's doing.  To my amazement he remembered all the sight words, sounded out words he didn't know, and even used expression and pausing for punctuation.  As a teacher he was a joy to see so excited about learning, and as a mom it was a special moment and memory for us!!

And apparently he won't have anxiety about reading to others - he took the books to school and read them to his entire class during story time.

So I guess I better get going on my posts or he'll be able to read them all before I get caught up!! :)
