Day 8 - She Freezes, He Breezes (through his reading lesson!)
Tuesday, January 08, 2008
This was Rachael's method of trying to convince me to turn up the heat this morning. (Creative, but unsuccessful!)




On a more exciting front ... Nick successfully completed his first "real" reading lesson!


We've been working with letter sounds for several months, but today he was reading real words! He called Jeff at work and said, "Daddy! I read 12 words all by myself! Are you proud of me?"




Of course the joyous celebration was cut short when he proceeded to poop in his pants (Nick, not Jeff) Anyway, at least I'll have a literate (albeit incontinent) son entering college in a few years!
