We have a reader!

About a week ago, Kade read an entire book all by himself!!! What a huge milestone!!!! He has been sounding words out for a while now but he never could figure out what word he was saying. It just wasn't clicking, I knew that it would come in time and we would just encourage him to keep trying and about a week ago it just clicked! It was so awesome watching him figure out the words as he was reading. It took two nights, and a lot of patience on Bryan and I's end but it was so worth it. At one point Bryan was ready to throw in the towel and save the rest for another night but Kade just didn't want to give up so I took over. And the moment he realized he finished the entire book it was priceless. He was beaming with pride!

This has really created so much confidence in him and I find him picking up his other learn to read books and reading those. It is amazing the change in one week. He is recognizing words left and right as he reads and we are just loving watching as he learns! Reading opens up a whole new world and we couldn't be more proud of our little guy!! 


His first book, "Dancing Dino's Go to School"
