First Try at Reading

During our bedtime story, we made our first attempt at reading... She did awesome and right off the bat she sounded out "cat" on her own. She did really good with other similar words like "rat" and "hat". Of course, I lost all credibility when I tried to explain words like "the"... Dat's not what that says!

At least it was a start. I can still hear her upstairs sounding out the same words over and over again...
