Noah's First Sentence

When my brother and I were kids, we had this school book to teach us to read. I don't remember much about it except that it had very simple and inane sentences.  Of those, I only remember one. So, while Seth was ordering the Kaya Toast this morning, I wrote it down on a piece of paper and asked Noah what it said. After quickly identifying the letters of the first word, he put the sounds together and read "Toto" then "a" and then "ri": "Toto a ri." (Toto laughed). He read his first sentence! I am not sure he understood it as Toto is not really a common name but he read the words.
