To go along with this years theme in Primary, the Primary Presidency challenged the children to read their scriptures EVERY day. To encourage them, the children get their own chart for each month and get to add stickers to a large board in the Primary room. At the end of the month, if the kids have read everyday they get to pick a prize out of a prize bucket. D has been REALLY motivated to get something out of that prize bucket so we have made a point of trying to reach this goal of reading every day. So the other night we were reading and D all of the sudden pointed to a verse and said "I can read that!". He preceeded to read about 5 verses. I was so proud of him. He knew most of the words and was willing to sound out the ones that he didn't know. It was awesome considering before he started 1st grade, reading was a bit of a struggle. It is so cool to seem him progessing and becoming more independant. Then tonight as we were going about our bedtime routine, he was quick to remind me that I didn't need to do the reading...that he could do.
