The other day, as a stood in the kitchen, I wondered why the girls were being so quiet.

And so I walked in a beautiful discovery. Katherine was reading a book on her own for the very first time.

Well, maybe not the first time…

I was just looking through old blog posts and I found the following in January 2010…

“This morning, Katherine insisted that we leave her alone. When I snuck in to see what she was doing, she was “reading” a chapter book.” (January 2010)

So glad that now, there’s no need to put quotation marks around the word reading although I am bit sad that there are also no more footy pajamas…
