I'm not sure if I should be proud about this... but I suppose it only reaffirms to me that he's on his way to reading a lot more!
On Thursday we were helping at MG's school with field day. MD needed to go to the bathroom so I pick up E and run to the school's bathroom. I am in a stall with E. MD is in his own stall. Everyone is doing their thing. Then I hear MD. "Mommy, what does a-s-s say?" I guess he was reading the graffiti on the bathroom door! I responded, "Hmm... I'm not sure, why don't you hurry it up so we can go?" "Okay," he responds. Then I get E out and we are washing our hands. Then I hear MD again. He is still in the stall and he's sounding out the word! "Aaaaaaasssssssssssssssssss. Mom, it says ass," he says to me. "Oh," I say. Then he responds, "Or it says acccce." "Hmm, maybe, let's get going," I respond. He quickly finishes up and washes his hands.
And that my friend was the end of that. Isn't it great when they discover new skills?!
