she is reading ?!!?!

Can hardly believe it.  Avery read me the bedtime story last night.  My grandma bought Avery some ' Dick and Jane' books for her baby shower and I have kind of kept them tucked away for the day when Avery would start to learn to read.  Recently we started reading them together and she would occasionally point out a word that she recognized.  Well, last night she just took off and read---sounded out the words herself and stuttered along---but successfully read the first 5 stories in the book all on her own!!  Dean and I were beaming proud parents as we listened to her read us a story!!  It is so amazing to watch these girls learn new things each day.
