Thanks, Dude. I did not teach her to read but now that I know she can read, I just got wound up in getting her to read. So yes chilling out seems like a wonderful suggestion. I do read a lot to her but mostly chapter books. She usually is either watching my face intently when I read or running around in circle. So not really paying attention to the words to pick anything up. But she does love being read to.
Ps. Lol on your strategy of shaming your dd to read. I have to bribe mine to read just for 5 minutes.
