Caitrin is finally breaking through. It's a slow process, but I see her trying to read more and more. She is actually working on it on her own, not just when I ask her to. Thank God!
She's making her way through Trixie Belden and an American Girl book, one paragraph at a time. It's taking her about fifteen minutes to do a paragraph alone and a little less if I'm a part of the process.
We are playing Catch Phrase a lot and the kids love it. Good game for using language to communicate. Tonight, Caitrin and Liam dusted Jon and me. Funny to see them beat us so easily.
Caitrin is weaving little rugs for her dolls. Very committed to the project. Lots of moving of her dolls around too. She narrated several of the Many Lands doll stories to Jon tonight. We also read some books at Barnes and Noble (Long-Long's New Year about the Chinese New Year). She loved that!
She has two Olivia books and is reading them with me too. I love her energy around books suddenly. Big change.
Today Liam and Caitrin came to Trader Joe's with me. Each one pushed his or her own cart. Little ones. I got a kick out of them. They have so much energy and are non-stop talkers.
