Reading
Audrey has officially hit "reader" status. I think she could read a newspaper with little difficulty. She wouldn't understand everything she read (thank goodness), but she could get the gist, I bet.
Right now Aislinn is "reading" a book she's seen Audrey reading out loud several times over the last few days (a board book about Jesus with surprisingly small print). She's reading it with such drama and intonation and concentration that I wish I had video capabilities so you could see and hear her. I know Audrey did the same thing at that age, but that doesn't stop it from being just as charming this time around.
House hunt is still on. I'm still torn between two cities. Still sick of looking at houses, but since we haven't found THE ONE yet, I guess I'll have to.

How exciting! It must be so neat to see her reading progress right before your eyes.
Yeah! It's so fun to see it click for them and watch them become readers!
That's awesome! I look forward to that day. My girls are just starting to read the simplest of books and that is in itself very cool.
I was SUCH a reader as a kid, and it is one of my great despairs that my oldest is not a reader. Hope lies in the younger two.
(love your kids names, btw)
