She Reads!!

Well as most of you know our kids all go to a private Christian School. Which is great for us cause they are learning so much and in a Christian environment. However we sometimes wonder if it is worth it to pay $200 a month for Ashlyn to go to pre-school...I mean pre-school...we all remember pre-school...playing with blocks, taking naps, eating snacks, and maybe getting read a book or two and learning our shapes but really not much else. Well to our great surprise she came home from school one day and asked what this word said. So me knowing that they have been teaching her sounds of letters at school asked her to sound it out. So she did and read her first word!! Well kinda she already could read her name! So I tested this out and got a very easy book out for her titled Cat to see if she could read it and she could!! The whole thing and then proceeded to read another book after that! So for any of you wondering if we are crazy to pay that kind of money for pre-school my answer to you is no way!! My pre-schooler can read, she can write and she already knows some cursive (not to mention her colors, shapes and how to play with blocks)! $200 well spent : )
