My son, reading his Bible

I have been trying to teach my son, Micah how to read. It is a process for any child to learn to read, but sometimes he does not seem interested. Well, last night in church I let Micah hold my Bible while the preaching was going on. He was looking at the Bible and all of a sudden he was picking out words and sounding them out!! He knew a lot of them (and, of, set,). Basically he knows short vowel sound words. I was so happy. It finally clicked to him that he can use those words and read them in other places other than in his school book. I was so proud of him, and he went right after church and told our Preacher that he is learning how to read and that he can even read some words in the Bible. I thank the Lord for the blessing of being able to homeschool, but also for being able to be part of when the lightbulb clicks on, especially when it has to do with Bible reading.
Talk to you later
