First Day of Reading: When I came home, I found some pieces of paper on the table with short sentences. Each word in the sentence was separately underlined, and all of the silent letters had a red line lightly drawn through them. I asked my wife what it was, and she invited my four-year old son to come up and read the sentences to me. He did. No problem. My jaw dropped. I'd never seen him read that much so quickly before on his own. I couldn't stop smiling. We celebrated by having freshly baked chocolate-chip cookies after dinner. I still can't believe it.
