Adjacent vowels

Yesterday morning we were having a family quiet time.

Dustin finished reading out of Luke and then prayed.

Karis decided she wanted to read a verse, so grabbed my Bible.

Usually she reads out of one that has the words of Jesus highlighted in red.

Mine doesn't have this, so instead of Matthew, she ended up in Judges.

We waited to see what would come out.

With a puzzled expression on her face she proceeded to say, "Mom, I don't know what this word says because it has an adjacent vowel. I'm just learning about adjacent vowels and I don't know the sounds these make together."

I love my little scholar. :-)
