I just lost my post.  I was thanking each of you individually for your wonderful comments about reading.........

I will go back and do this again, because I wanted to post what you all said (aside from Ms. ANONYMOUS!  *coward!*)  and give you personal comments about how your suggestions have helped me to rework how I will teach reading.

Thank you, thank you for your encouragement!  It has really helped me to climb back on the reading train and try new and fun things with her to further motivate her to continue on with reading. 

Having this journal is such a wonderful resource -- having all of you homeschooling moms to look to when I am having difficulties, or to share successes with is just awesome!

Please watch for my updated reading post later tonight or tomorrow!
