Both of your metaphors are very powerful. I like how active they are because I think that most people assume that literacy is passive - something we do alone, quietly.
Great metaphor. As Dr. Vetter has already commented, it removes passivity from literacy. So why I am parroting here? Because I had not thought of literacy as anything but passive prior to this. Thanks, it has opened up a whole new way of thinking for me.
Good luck with the little person. You'll find that once you've lost your own life within theirs, you wouldn't have it any other way.

Congrats on the baby to come!
