Finally, dd is loving reading. I can't tell you how good that makes me feel. Both dh and I love reading and so does ds#1 and its taken forever for her to learn to read.

I bought her an Advertures in Odyessy the other day and she read it in 3 days. I knew she would like it because she loves listening to the audio tapes and has listened over and over again. I never in a 100 years thought she'd read it in 3 days though.

She is now reading another book and is 1/2 way through. And it isn't even an Odyessy book. She's wanting me to buy her more.

Heaven have you ever tried those colored pieces of plastic sheeting that goes over pages for dyslexic children to help them read???

I am SO proud of her. That is wonderful. Has she tried reading the little house books? I bet she would love them.
