Division and Spelling

Caleb read his first word today. He sounded it out C - A - T. We have been working on letter sounds for awhile, and he is really good at sounding out the first letter of any word and telling you what it is, but I had no idea he was ready to actually start sounding out entire words! He also did a simple division problem with Ben. We had made 6 muffins and Ben and Caleb were deciding how many each person could have. Ben asked "how many people are there that eat muffins?" "Three", Caleb replied. Then Ben asked him how many each person would get. Caleb looked at the muffins and counted "one two three, one two three" and then answered Ben's question with "two!". Yeah, pretty good for a three year old.

In other news, well, there really isn't any other news. I solely wrote this blog to talk about how smart my kid is...but hey....It's my blog.
