Cat allowed. Daddy not.

I took these photos of my daughter from a hiding place in the kitchen.  I watched her for about five minutes before she finally noticed me and told me to go away.     

I just love the idea of my little girl reading on her own, even if she's just reciting the books that she has memorized or calling out the individual letters that she knows.

Well, she's sort of reading on her own. 

As you can see, her new kitty is listening attentively and hanging on her every word.
