We are avidly sounding out words and learning to read.
Josie phonetically sounding out letters for 'water':
"W_ a_t_?e?_r"
"Mom! What is that?"
Me: "You are doing it right, sound it out again."
Josie: "W_a_t_r"
Water!
Me: "yes, that is right, water!"
Josie: "Mom! There is a slient 'e' in the middle of the word water!
That is stupid!"
