That reminds me BKD of the differences in reading in my girls. While we thought Miss 7 would be reading by 4, it actually took her a while to get it to all fall into place. It didn't really happen for her until 5. And she really didn't get bitten by the reading bug until this summer (when glasses enabled her to read smaller print and therefore more interesting and complex books more easily). Whereas, Miss 4's reading journey has been very different. She's gone from learning the alphabet to 60-page simple chapter books in 18 months or so. Each child is so different...
