Look, look the Monkey wants to learn to read!
And I think she will do it fast,
if her enthusasim continues to last.
Doing the letters one by one
apparently is tons of fun!
Circle the picture that match the letter
Everyday she gets better and better!
Next she will need to select
which letter for the picture is correct!
Then after that letters one to three
will put together, what will the word be?
Then Hebrew and English she'll really know.
and her mind will grow, grow, grow!
I know this rhyme is pathetic
What do you want? An epic?
(sorry guys...really, my mind she is a going!)
---and and by the way, the Artist said a whole sentence in Hebrew to her sister's teacher! Wehaw!!! She is talking, a little bit at a time! This is both a shyness and a language issue. We've decided to give points with a reward for ten or more points. Hey, bribery can be beneficial sometimes.

Keep up the good work. You are to be admired in my book. I have spoken of you to my wife and she may be asking you for some pointers on .....
She has a degree in English and a degree in Music from SMU and she will be homeschooling our daughter.(like shes not already) My daughter is 3.5 years old and can already spell my name. DAD. :p
One question: We chose her name, Adira Lior, thinking that Adira means strong or strength and Lior means light, in Hebrew. Were we correct in our knowlege?
Even if we were not she most certainly is a strong light in our lives.
