Wordless Wednesday: I didn't steal the cookies from the cookie jar!

Goodnight Moon

I really wish I had a video camera last night. Caleb and I were reading stories before bed. He was sitting in my lap and had given me a pile of books to read. As soon as I finished "Goodnight Moon" he jumped down, walked over by his bed and sat on the floor. What happened next melted my heart. He opened the book and read it to me. He has done this before, but last night just seemed different and more special. Maybe because he was saying actual words from the pages rather than made up words!

This is about the words he used as he read:
Page 1: babahda MOON!
Page 2: lalaladadada CHAIR!
Page 3: COMB!!!
Page 4: dababada COMB!!!!
Page 5: BOON!! (his word for balloon)
Page 8: (he skipped a few...) COMB!!!! (He was really stuck on the comb last night...)
Page 9: He put his finger up to his mouth "Shhhhhh!"
Page 10: Comb!
Page 11: ninite STAR!!! (then he waved to the star in the book)
Page 12 (or so!) SHHHHH!!!!
Page 13: ALL DONE!!! and he claps his hands, so proud of his reading...

What a sweet boy! I love that he read Mommy a Night Night Story last night. So precious!
