and I were playing with his letter flashcards.  He loves to say the letter and then the sound, so I figured it was time to teach him how to add the sounds together to form a word.  We started with cat.  

Me:  Cuh Aaaaa Tttttt

Colton:  Cuh Aaaaa Tttttt

We repeat that about ten times, then Colton says, “Cat.”

I was so excited.  Holy crap my three year old can read.  I called everyone around to watch as we moved on.

Me:  Pppp Iiiii Gggg

Colton:  Pppp Iiiiii Gggg

After about fifteen times, I look around at everyone with a knowing smile and say to Colton with the light of pride shining in my eyes, “Ok sweetie what does that spell?”

He looks at me with a smile that says he's got it, and yells, “DOG”.
