This fall we started 'reading lessons' with Allison. It was definitely an exercise in perseverance for ALL of us to finish her reading lessons book. There were some tears and frustration as Allison worked through this book but she never gave up (sometimes because we wouldn't let her!). And she finally finished it and earned her prize - her Frozen Legos. She is also a pretty good reader now, she is always surprising even herself at the words she can sound out. And I haven't figured out what my prize is yet for sitting through all those lessons! :)

We used that book for Judson, too, but never actually finished once I had Porter. Thankfully we got far enough that his reading was able to take off anyway. And, yes, moms need rewards for persevering with those lessons! :)
