Reading

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!"
