Sarah Teaches Caleb to "Read"

A few nights ago John and Sarah sat down to read Green Eggs and Ham. Sarah did so well and we're very proud of her! She read half of the book, all by herself. Teaching a child to read has been much easier than I had anticipated.

After they put the book away, Sarah got it back out and sat Caleb down on the couch for a reading "lesson". Here's the video.
