Why text from TextBlock is not displaying?

Question

Why the text from the following TextBlock is not displaying. How can we have it displayed above the FlowDocument?

<Window x:Class="WPF_Test.MainWindow"

        mc:Ignorable="d"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="450" Width="800">
    
    <Grid>
        <TextBlock Margin="5" Text="This text is from TextBlock"/>

        <FlowDocumentReader>
            <FlowDocument Background="GhostWhite" ColumnWidth="10000">
                <List MarkerOffset="25" MarkerStyle="Decimal" StartIndex="1">
                    <ListItem>
                        <Paragraph Margin="10">Test Paragraph</Paragraph>
                        <List MarkerStyle="UpperLatin" Margin="0" Padding="0"  >
                            <ListItem Margin="40,5,0,0">
                                <Paragraph>Test paragraph</Paragraph>
                            </ListItem>
                            <ListItem Margin="40,5,0,0">
                                <Paragraph>Test paragraph</Paragraph>
                            </ListItem>
                            <ListItem Margin="40,5,0,0">
                                <Paragraph>Test paragraph</Paragraph>
                            </ListItem>
                        </List>
                    </ListItem>
                    <ListItem>
                        <Paragraph Margin="10">Test paragraph</Paragraph>
                    </ListItem>
                    <ListItem>
                        <Paragraph Margin="10">Test paragraph</Paragraph>
                    </ListItem>
                </List>
            </FlowDocument>

Grid adds elements based on a row and column index. The child elements TextBox and FlowDocumentReader should be located in different column/row of the grid panel:

<Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Margin="5" Text="This text is from TextBlock"/>

    <FlowDocumentReader Grid.Row="1">
    ....    
</Grid>
