Is It Real or Is It Memorex?

CJ loves to read.  He asks me, Maki and the nanny to read books to him every day.  At night, he asks for 4 books ( 4 because he's 4).  He likes to practice writing and he also likes to read.

Is he actually reading or is he "memory" reading?  I have no idea.  I write out simple sentences for him and he reads them back to me.  He reads his books at night.  He seems to know the difference between single and plural nouns; he will sound out the "s"when reading.  And he is starting to sound out letters when he encounters a new word.

Whatever the case, CJ loves the idea the ideas that he is reading.  I hope he grows up to be a voracious reader like the rest of the family, maybe even like Uncle Alex. :-)
