Holy Moley

Today when Daisy and Mark were out together, Daisy pointed at a stop sign that was missing a "T" and said, "The T ran away from that stop sign and went to a tea party!" (Ahem, I guess Sesame Street is pretty educational, because she got that idea from an episode called "The Runaway Ts.") Well, so this shows that Daisy can read the word "Stop," which isn't too shocking because we know she can read a few words. But THEN she said to Mark, "Now it says 'SOP.'" !!!!! I can't believe she knows how to "read" like that... I am not sure what exactly, but that indicates some new level of understanding language, I think (to be able to imagine how to pronounce the same word if it's missing a letter). This kid absolutely boggles my mind sometimes!

Holy indeed. That doesn't come from Susan's program, but if you keep reinforcing the program, Daisy will be reading well six months from now.

I'm not remotely surprised by this. You don't even have to reinforce it; she'll be reading like a champ in a few months just on her own volition.
