Morning read

Jordan loves being read to, but strongly dislikes having to read himself. He can read quite well, but hits a mental block after about three sentences when he'll complain that it's just too hard. But this morning instead of coming to our room as usual to make sure he wasn't the only one awake, he let us sleep in. When I came down at 7:30 to see why the house was so quiet, I found him curled up on the couch reading through this book that Mom and Dad made for him last Christmas, diligently moving his finger down line by line as he read, and laughing at the pictures. It's a big step for our little boy! :-)

Perhaps even more impressive for Mom and Dad is to see who the competition is, that this book got selected over!
