Reading His First Book

We've been working with Hooked on Phonics Learn to Read materials the last month.  Daniel has done great with the short and easy lessons.  He's also been doing great memorizing his sight words for preschool.  So far he can recognize: so, you, I, the, of, is, see, to.

After the first three lessons in the Hooked on Phonics material there is a short book to read.  He seemed quite motivated to try and read it once I told him he could pick whatever sweet he wanted if he actually read it.







I'm so proud of Daniel!

New and Local

I finally convinced Aaron that we needed a new mattress after I hogged the center of the bed for the last few weeks.  So we ended up with the exact same mattress we had since we loved it for over 8 years.  It was delivered this afternoon.  After inspecting it, I told Daniel we would look at the tag and see when it was made.  2/20/2013 on State Street in Cleveland, OH.  That was yesterday, AWESOME!!!

I love Midwest manufacturing!
