The boys are suddenly strong enough readers that they really enjoy getting lost in a book. Over the last few weekends there have been a number of times when I look around wondering where one of the kids has gone. Inevitably I find them reading! Whether it is Owen eagerly devouring one of the Harry Potter books, or Oliver smiling at a graphic novel or trying to solve one of the Hardy Boys mysteries, it brings a smile to my face every time. Finally the whine, "I'm bored..." is almost obsolete!
