Emily's first days of school!!

Emily is making new friends and enjoying our schooling at home with Sonlight. She's reading too!!!! She's in the beginning stages, but she's reading ~20 sentences a day or more. I have books with short stories in them that do a lot of rhyming or changing only one letter, etc. She practiced her -at words today along with learning the 'th' sound for The and That. She's even writing sentences through copywork. She's so proud of herself. Her favorite part is science. We tried to make our own rainbow today but the sun didn't cooperate very well for us. She has also decided she's going to build a money machine for daddy. She drew her plans for the machine and says once it's build his employees and visitor will simply put their money in it and then he won't have to go to work anymore! Smart girl, huh? If only life was that simple. Perhaps she will invent something some day and will simply have people investing in it so she doesn't have to work again. :-)
