Owen is reading!

Owen read his first book yesterday! I ordered the Bob books for him after seeing them recommended in several places, including our pediatrician's office. The first set arrived last night and Owen was anxious to get started. We spent about 10 minutes reviewing the letter sounds introduced in the first book, and within 20 minutes he'd read the whole book aloud to me & Marshall all by himself! I can't remember ever seeing him look so proud.

These photos are from this morning when he read the book to Cole and Jacob. We didn't review at all this morning and he read it perfectly.







Also, last night Marshall & I went to kindergarten parent orientation. There are 19 different kindergarten classes and Owen was lucky enough to be assigned to a class with 2 of his best friends from preschool. His teacher seems really nice and he's anxious to start riding the bus with his buddy Tyler. Tuesday will be his first day & I anticipate it will be a great year for him.

It's hard to believe how much he's grown! Some days it feels like these were taken last week.
