Reading

Amelia's reading level has increased exponentially in the past couple weeks -- all of a sudden she is actually *reading* without having to look at pictures for context clues or stop and sound out words all the time. While this is good, I have to say it can be tiring too!

Amelia: Mom, we have to buy that house!
Me: Huh? What?
Amelia: The sign says it has a pool!! We have to buy it!!
***
Amelia: I want the strawberry starburst slushy!
Me: What? There's no such thing.
Amelia: I'm staring right at the sign, Mom.
***
Amelia: Mom, I'm a little worried.
Me: Uhh, why?
Amelia: "Because that sign said "beware" but we were driving by it too fast so I didn't see what I'm supposed to beware of!!"
Me: Omg.

Meanwhile at school she has gone from an E level reader to a G level in two weeks :)
