Benjamin can read!

No more spelling out words to keep a secret around here... Benjamin can read! Earlier tonight I was in the living room and I could hear Benjamin in the kitchen talking to himself. I wasn't really paying much attention and then I heard him say, "Help is in the bag" which is a slogan I remembered seeing on the grocery bags Scott had just brought in. Sure enough, there was Benjamin reading the bag.

A few days earlier the exact same thing happened as we were driving to school. Benjamin suddenly blurted out "We can do that!" as I looked up to see the delivery truck in front of us.

Scott also took him to the store to buy a few early reader books and he breezed right through them, even the level 2 books! He sounds out the words perfectly and even reads with expression in his voice. It's a wild transformation we're watching as our little boy becomes a reader!
