My Little Bibliophile

My little man is learning to read!

For the past few weeks, we have begun working through Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons .
At first, we both thought it dry and boring, and I questioned seriously whether we would continue.
Soon, however, he started to apply what he was learning in the world all around him,
and learning to read quickly became exciting...for both of us.

Today, we tried out Bob Books for the first time.  Thanks, Elizabeth!  :-)
And, Caleb read through the first and second books on his own this afternoon.  
I caught the last part with my camera, and I thought I would share this super short video: 

Our Entry into Homeschooling

   Last week, Caleb and I began homeschooling.

So, on the days he doesn't go to his wonderful preschool,

he gets to do some school work with me.

It has been something I have wanted to do for years.

 And, we are both thoroughly enjoying it.

I love watching his mind work, 

and I am so grateful to get to watch how he develops.

I am so thankful for this opportunity.

And if you're interested, I am (at this point) using a blend of Sonlight, Timberdoodle, My Father's World, How to Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons, and random books and tools I have found at garage sales over the years.  :-) 

And, I also welcome any advice for a homeschool newbie.
