So we were out to eat tonight and as we were waiting for our food to come I was reading Alex The Little Train. We got done with the story and as he usually does when he likes the story he asks that we read it again.

I’ve been getting in the habit of asking him to read me the story the second time and he usually just makes stuff up about the pictures. If he’s heard to story enough he knows the general idea and it’s pretty close to what the actual story is.

Well tonight when I asked him to read the story he looked at me and said

“No, I can’t read the words yet. You read the story.”
