Reading the Blanket

Our son is a genius.  He's already reading!  And this image is his first reading material. (Sorry for the bad photo-- who knew it's really hard to take a picture of a poster?)


The poster hangs above his changing table and when he's fresh and clean, he likes to stand up on the table and read the poster out loud.  Not distinguishing between the alphanumeric writing and the patterns on the Pendleton blanket, he will point dramatically along the horizontal lines from left to right, pronouncing "Dah. Dah. Dah. Duh. Duh. Duh. Dah. Dah. Dah. Dah."  Very robotic and monotone because he's reading, not babbling-- which makes me wonder about my story-reading skills.
