Soren finished 6 lessons in his "practicing book" as he calls it. We repeated a few lessons to make sure he really mastered the sounds. Today, I pulled out the first BOB book to see if Soren would be able to grasp piecing sounds together to make real words (not just the nonsense word like blends like "em" and "et" that he sounds out in his lessons.) He did it!
Teaching my children to read is one of the greatest blessings of motherhood. Watching their eyes light up when they have that "ah ha" spark moment? It's totally priceless.
Today was a really good day to day to be Soren Willardson, but an even better day to be Meg Willardson, because I got to witness Soren's great day. It was ultimate parenting goodness to see the joy in his accomplishment. Great work, Soren!
